* Create notes and highlights
Thanks to Whispersync, you can already read your notes and highlights from other devices on Kindle for PC. We'd like to add the ability to create notes and highlights using the Kindle for PC application.
I hope they're serious about adding that ability, but they need to go a step further and add a copy and paste function for text. It's nice that they gave us the means to view all our notes and highlighted text in a given book in one place, but if you want to quote something in one of your books, there are currently only two options:

1) Type it the entire passage you wish to quote in your favorite word processor.

2) Open the book in your Kindle,
-- underline the desired passage,
-- connect the Kindle to your PC via USB,
-- open the My Clippings file,
-- search for the desired text,
-- copy and paste into your word processor,
-- close the My Clippings file,
-- eject your Kindle and finally,
-- disconnect your Kindle from the PC.

Amazon could have made it easier.
