Kobo really needs to change that 100 limit, it's the one thing that cripples their search. Other than that limit, it's much better than the Kindles, but not quite as good as the Sonys (I still wish for a PRS-350 with a front light! ).
I don't understand--I just did a search within the book on both my Kindle Voyage and my Aura HD. In both cases it opened a new page with a list of the instances of the word, with a little bit of surrounding text and the location of the word in the book. In what way is the Kindle search different from the Kobo?
