Um, I'm not exactly who said what and when but I have to agree that better organization which facilitates easier storage of more material would be great. Right now I use my reader for almost 100% fiction because that's what it does well but I've also realized that my 2 GB card is almost useless. The ability to search text would be an amazing feature. I would even settle for a "smart" index that would let me jump to certain things. I've tried putting reference docs and various work files on it and it just doesn't work.
In my opinion, the killer product in this category is the replacement textbook, reference manual, work file system. Paperback and light and it's easy to carry a couple with me. A shelf full of reference material is heavy and not practical for travel. I realize that's not what this device is and I'm not trying to say that's what it should become.
I'm kinda surprised at the intolerance in this thread. People have been quick to condemn others with the "that's not what it was meant for" mantra. Just because one disagrees with another person's wants or opinions doesn't make one right and the other wrong.
