Not only that, it's really fast. I knew I had some personal docs that had to do with election news from a send-to-kindle of a web document, and I knew that my New Yorker subscription would have the word too.<br /><br /> So I opened a book about politics and highlighted the word "election" on a page and then Searched all my Items for any instance of that in other content on my Kindle.<br /><br /> It gave me within 5 seconds a list of all New Yorker issues on my device (text based magazine) with that word, same with all books, the personal docs I knew had the word, and the results gave surrounding text for the words for context and of course linked me to each occurrence and brought me to any selected one very quickly. Am very happy with that.<br /><br /> The dictionary improvement should say "fullER definition" as long definitions don't fit the box area made for them, but it's MUCH better than the few lines we saw before. <br /><br /> KT's are out of stock again. What is Amazon's thinking on that model (with TTS on it)?<br /><br /><br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05109282436243758435noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-872447660964013545.post-43613836964253199012013-04-29T12:00:11.763-07:002013-04-29T12:00:11.763-07:00Nice little update (at least this one has some vis...Nice little update (at least this one has some visible changes!).<br /><br />I think I send kindle-feedback shortly after getting my first Kindle Touch about the lack of ability to search (book, my items, kindle store) using selection phrase as you can with Kindle Keyboard. Well, it is still not an option on KT but at least KPW now does it. Often there will be references to other books in the one I'm reading and I like to read the Kindle Store description. Or I want to search for a word or term that appears on the current page. They made that inconvenient by forcing you to type it in instead of simply selecting it.. <br /><br />Love the 'full definition' feature too.<br /><br />Hopefully KT will get this too.Tom Semplehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05127272649086914117noreply@blogger.com
