My Kobo Wishlist

1. European release date. It's so frustrating that I can't buy it yet.

2. Unicode support. I'm not sure what is or is not supported, but I need at least support for English, Dutch, and Spanish, but expect that some things I read will contain other character sets (even if I don't understand them).

3. Searching
I often read technical books. I often search through them for information. I don't mind if this is just a case of selecting letters on and on-screen keyboard using the big blue button (say that fast 10 times).

4. Collections
Again, I'm not sure what it does and doesn't do, but I'd like to organise my books into categories (e.g. fiction, non-fiction, user manuals, etc).

5. Plain text support
Plain text files are easy to create. I can do a lot with these (code samples, etc).

EDIT #1:
6. Jump to page
I'm surprised this one is missing. Imagine the scenario: "friend: 'the info is on page 77' me: page 1, click, page 2, click, page 3 click.....5 minutes later....page 76 click page 77....finally!

EDIT #2:
7. Bookmarks
It would be very nice to be able to bookmark pages which you can refer to later. This is especially useful for technical documents, but probably also for novels.

It would also be nice to know what kobo have planned. I read somewhere that they already have a wish-list of sorts. I'd love to see it.
