A feature I would really like to see implemented on the Kindle is an error flag. If you spot an error in a book, you could just scroll to the line and select to report an error. Next time you connect, they could upload your error reports. If corrections are made they could replace your copy. It would be so simple and would improve the quality of their books with very little effort from the readers. They'd also receive better data. I would imagine may complaints are along the lines of, "The formatting was poor and there were many typos." I doubt most people bother to list all the locations of the errors in their books. Many probably don't bother to report them at all. With an error flag, they'd know the specific location and I bet a lot more people would take a few seconds to do that than would take a few minutes to write an email.
