Interesting... video. I never really paid attention to the X-ray feature, but if you listen to his description of how to use the x-ray feature to look up information about a character, it sure sounds a LOT like this e-mail that I sent to kindle-feedback some time ago:
Quote:
More than once while reading a book I've found myself wishing for a "book specific dictionary".
For example: When reading a multi-book science fiction series there is often a long period of time between books and I find myself forgetting what place names or characters are in reference to. It'd be nice if the ebook could include its own supplemental dictionary that is also searched when I move the cursor over a word that could help refresh my memory.
Obviously this dictionary would have to be provided by the author/editor/publisher, but in order to do so the ebook file format and the device would have to support the feature.
This seems like it could be a differentiating feature that makes the Kindle even more appealing than it already is.

Maybe they do listen! ;-) Or, maybe I'm not the first to have that idea. :-)
Maybe I do have a desire to upgrade to the K4! If only it had page turn buttons!
