Osnova,
That is not true exactly on my Kindle LG WiFi 3. When I search for mt.22.1, I get BOTH links to Matthew 22:1 AND Matthew 2:21. Thus, it still works fine for me. Also, I do not have to press Find twice to get there. I just press the 5-way key ONCE and I get to the links. Then I choose which link and press it once again. I tested on the NET and KJV. I cannot speak for the other versions.
When I search for ge.24, I get 69 results but most are all the verses in Genesis 24. The location I want is the second. Again, that still lets me get where I want. In addition, if I search for ge.24.1, I get only one result - the correct one. Thus, if we want a chapter, we MUST designate the first verse. That is also not a problem for me. However, just pressing ge24 still gets to verse one as the second choice. That is sufficient for me.
I just found the dots (.) are now UNNECESSARY. Just use mt221 or ge241 and you get to the locations. That is major IMPROVEMENT in your DVJ.
Also, Zondervan did reply to me in response to the email I sent as follows:
"Dear Sir,
Frankly, I have no idea what you are talking about. I have not heard of Osnova in any shape or form.
The NIV is a licensed product that I work closely with Biblica on to approve. We strive to maintain its integrity.

Thus, resend your request from your PC to that email address and you WILL reach her. Do NOT click on the link at the Zondervan web site to send the email. Evidently, Outlook won't deliver any email sent that way since it has determined it is an Unprotected address and will only send to a Protected address.
By the way, thanks for that abbreviation page. I saved a copy and printed it out to take to Bible Study. That page should be accessible from inside all the Osnova Bibles.
Finally, Amazon sells a "Bible in a Year" Kindle book. I didn't see your DVJ there. Please work on getting that one linked to bible verses AND dates of the year. I'll only buy that one when I see your handiwork included in it.
Another improvment I'd like to see is a way to go directly from one Bible version to another with the verse like: KJVmt316 or NETge24. I'm not sure this is even possible.
