Text Annotation

njok · 08-06-2010, 12:53 PM

Hi!
Is there any plan ( firmware upgrade ) so that Story will support Text Annotation?
This would be great option.

Annotation is not supported for now (or probably for ever).

Even if annotation is supported, I wouldn't use it, because typing anything on Story's keyboard is a slow and torturous process.

I find typing quite OK.
Also linking memos to page or paragraph would be nice feature.

I agree with you njok, and the keyboard is right there. (On the other hand, this is one feature where almost all e.readers come up short, so iRiver's not alone on this.)

Unfortunately, iRiver doesn't seem to comment on what it might or might not be working on. (Most developers don't, so no surprises there, but it would be nice if they did.) But iRiver doesn't seem to be very info-generous as a rule.

Have you tried writing your suggestions to iRiver? I did, raising a couple of points where I felt the functions could definitely be improved, and unfortunately got a very non-committal reply saying in essence only "That's just how it works", but every bit of feedback helps build the incentive, surely.
