Tapping this brings up all instances of that word in the book, displayed from the very beginning of the book. This could be annoying if you are halfway through a book and want to find the next instance of some text, as you will have to pass over the other, earlier instances of that text before getting to the later selections.
I find this very useful. The main reason I would do a search is to find where a particular character (person) first appeared in the book and his/her relevance to the story. A search gives me these early entries.

I have purchased a Glo and it should arrive soon, and hope that if I search for a person with this hold-press method, that there will be a 'return' button. Guess I'll find out soon.

Great review 9littlebees. Hope you can finish it.
