I read conflicting articles, don't remember where. But, I have couple of questions if anyone can help.
1. Does eslick support search within a file ?
2. When new firmware is available, (which supports more features), can it be upgraded if I purchase one today ?
Thanks

eslick don't have a touch screen or keyboard, so how can you use a search function?

Though this would be a little awkward you could in a later eslick update present the user with a on screen virtual keyboard to achieve alpha numeric input (much like the current page number input menu but only bigger and more cumbersome)
In fact i could see the usefulness of this feature to be worth the pain of inputting the search string.

We've tested a virtual keyboard to do searching. We might have it in a future version.
The firmware is upgradeable. We will be releasing a new upgrade in the next couple days.

But I expect you need to press more than 20 times to input a word, with the response time of eink screen... I would rather search in pc if I can.
Anyway, still good if available.
