Head the list with a table of first letters and in some cases maybe a second table with 2 letters for more popular letters. Use a smart approach instead of a brute force approach.
Yes, something like that might work OK. I just wanted to test if it was possible to make an HTML document to enter text. And it worked pretty well with FBReader where you can click on the links. The file for four letter is around 10M and the HTML file I used to generate the mobipocket file was 25M or so.
