Also, the Find used alone via 5-way button still works too.<br /><br />It doesn't give feedback WHILE it's searching, so it may seem not to work and maybe you pressed a 2nd button...Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05109282436243758435noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-872447660964013545.post-52308202066309632862010-08-29T11:45:39.600-07:002010-08-29T11:45:39.600-07:00Andrys,

On the K3, to search for a word without having to type it in, it needs to be highlighted, and then the space bar needs to be pressed. (So far, it is the same as the K2). What is different is one must now hit the down arrow, and then the right arrow to click on "find". <br /><br />It's not a big difference, but does take some getting used to.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16544952053068019536noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-872447660964013545.post-45458644352016895002010-08-28T05:19:26.708-07:002010-08-28T05:19:26.708-07:00Tom,

I'd missed it too.<br /><br /> The audible.com files supposedly can be sent via your network direct to your Kindle.<br /><br /> But they are huge so I wouldn't do more than one at a time. Even mp3s can be quite lage.<br /><br /> As for bug-tripping, me too! <br /><br /> Bet you like Sans Serif? It's so bold! Good to switch to in dim light.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05109282436243758435noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-872447660964013545.post-85489973240143923962010-08-28T04:34:10.243-07:002010-08-28T04:34:10.243-07:00I was hoping to play with the Audible integration,...I was hoping to play with the Audible integration, but the Audible category (as described in the manual) is not yet in the Kindle Store. I asked Amazon CS about it, they didn't know when we might expect to see it. Also they couldn't tell me if it was going to be possible to access my Audible library somehow. <br /><br />I tried downloading directly from audible.com, but got the dreaded 'cannot download this type of file'. It probably would not have landed in the right folder ('audible') anyway.<br /><br />Wow, another K3 Krash (3rd one today). Hope it is just me (I have a talent for tripping over bugs...)<br /><br />Love the new typefaces. <br /><br />I just noticed another new feature: when you open a book, a small downward-pointing triangle appears above the progress indicator, indicating the location where you began the reading session. As you page ahead, then, you get to see what progress you've made <em>in that reading session</em>.
