It would certainly kill it for me,

I got into ebooks in the first place when a former employer decided all IT staffers should have PDAs. IT wasn't clear what I was supposed to do with it, so I went looking for things that could help me do my job. One of my first discoveries was software that would let me take electronic forms of the documentation for systems I worked with and put them on my PDA in a searchable format. I could carry a systems library in my pocket, and look up what I needed to know.

Not having a search function would be a deal-breaker.
