Sorry, but I really don't understand the anathema to linked endnotes or footnotes. They work the same way as "pop-up" footnotes do--at least, the ones my firm makes do--and a click is still a click. On the PPW, you click to see the footnote/endnote, whatever, and you click again in the body of the book to close the note. On a Fire, you click to go to the endnote, read it, and click to go back. There's NO difference in the coding and there's no difference in number of clicks. One click to read it, one click to close it, whether in a k2 or a PPW or a Nook or iBooks. NO difference whatsoever.

The only "difference" is that one LOOKS cooler than the other, if that's the entire gist. But the reading of the note is actually EASIER in the Fire, because I don't have to scroll down on long notes, as I do in iBooks and PPW.

FWIW. I certainly have precisely zero intention of changing my company's coding to create faux "pop-up" notes so that it only works on a few devices. I'd rather make something that works on EVERY e-reader.

I'm +1 mrmikel on this one.
