For myself, knowing that Kobo's search works so badly bothers me more than the actual hindered use of it. It doesn't really happen often when you search for a word that occurs more than 100x in a book. I think it's actually only happened once or twice where I really could have used a proper full search through the entire book where it occurred more than 100 times. I just opened up my trusty Sony 350 and searched that way. It was while having to proof read a book, so at least I had a way around it.

And no, using the PW for a search never even entered my mind .

If you use Coolreader or Koreader, does the search function any differently and let you go beyond 100 items?
