I for example have the newest firmware on the 350 with PRS+. And the bug. It's clearly reproducible with EPUBs and RTFs.

Test it like this:

- go to let's say 3rd page
- choose a word there which is very uncommon in the book
- go to let's say last page
- search for the word (which should of course not be on the page)
- reader suggests to begin searching on the first page. Say "yes"
- reader will stick with the message on the statubar "searching..."

You can search for a word which isn't in the book at all. For example "qqqqq". Same behaviour. After suggesting to seach from the beginning reader will stick on "searching...".
