nice icon!

I want the stuff that can get better, to get better, in ways that help voracious devoted readers, not ways to better entice non-readers to buy an ebook device because it plays sudoku and has email access and plays videos, and hey, maybe you'll finally get around to reading those Important Classics that you were told the smart people read. Bleh

YES, this.

Like FOOTNOTES. Every single ereader I've seen has handled footnotes (not endnotes) really badly, squishing them into the text and making them absolute spaghetti. So anything halfway scholarly, or anything where I just want to be able to flip between two or three spaces while checking notes, doesn't work on an ereader. sigh.
