I would like to have searching, but I don't need it. Still, it would honestly depend on what I have on the device. If I have technical books, then yes. If I have fiction and entertainment non-fiction, then no.
Although, there was this one latin phrase I was looking for in The Handmaid's Tale... |

I see no logical reason to add search to "this" reader. now if new hardware was design with it in mind sure but the current hardware is very ANTI nice to a search function
First its too slow. the speed is fine for me for what it does but would drive me BATTY doing a search. Second how would you enter it ? the easiest way I could think of would be cell phone style since we have the 10 digits. ie texting style (pain) anything I need to search on (nothing yet) I would just put on my zodiac. |

You would, as you say, need some type of on-screen keyboard to enter text. Something along the lines of SMS entry on mobile phones would perhaps be reasonable to use. |
