Ploblem finding the right spot to touch on KT
Here goes: I read a comic. Activate search. Hit "This book" and choose "Dictionary" Then I type a word to search for. Then I hit "Go" And more than half of the times it doesn't work. I can't hit the right "GO" spot.  I know it sounds funny, but I'm a little frustrated. And I don't want to make a frisbee out of my Touch allready. Anyone else? Himmelbjerget |

IMO they messed up a little with the way search works. If you have typed a search string, and then you bring the search options dialog up, and make a selection, it should initiate search without one having to touch the Go button. But of course that is not the way it works.
I haven't had this problem, but maybe it would work better if you bring the search options dialog and select Dictionary there before typing a search string. I'm not sure what you mean by 'comic'. Does it matter what type of book you are reading? |

Hi tomsem
I read Doonesbury. I think the GO-button is more difficult to hit in comic strips. There is no problem in ordinary books. |

Why are you posting about the Kobo Touch in the Amazon forum?
Yes, KT = Kobo Touch as it came out before the Kindle Touch. So using the term KT does mean Kobo Touch. AKT = Amazon Kindle Touch.
