I keep hoping for some upgrades on the DXG, specifically the ability to search one's pdf collection for a word or phrase. Last I heard it could only search inside the particular pdf that was open.

But the DXG doesn't seem to be changing as fast as the Kindle proper. I suppose because it has a smaller user base, so doesn't get as much attention from product development.
You're right where searching in PDFs is concerned; the global search only looks in the PDF metadata. And no, it doesn't seem to be getting any attention at all, it looks like. I think the DX is a dead-end product.

You can install the 3.2 firmware of the K3/Kindle Keyboard on it, (although that still won't look inside a PDF with a global search) though, or Duokan, if you want/need better PDF handling.
