Fast And Accurate Searches
With jetBook it is easy to search the contents of your e-library. Using a sophisticated search engine, you will get a list of every instance of a word found in the book's contents when you enter a search term. Then simply choose the reference you want and the jetBook will take you there instantly. JetBook Lite is different, searching forwards or backward from the current book location.
T9 Text Input
jetBook uses the advanced T9 text input method that refers back to its pre-installed dictionaries to complete words as you type them. The comfortable alphanumeric keypad familiar from mobile phones makes entering the word you want quick, easy and accurate.
On Device File Manger
The on device file manager allows you to move, rename and delete files. You can also create and delete folders. See folder system below.
Folder System
The Jetbook has a full support for user defined nested folders. You can create folders on the device using the built in file manager or when connected to a PC. The folders displayed on the device mirror the folder structure on the device and the memory card. The folders on the card are combined with the folders on the device. The Jetbooks uses an file naming convention of Author_Name#Title_of_Book.txt in order to list/sort the books by either author or title.
PDF Viewer
The PDF viewer is the Foxit PDF reader. It includes Zoom and Pan/Scroll support. You can also zoom a portion of the document. The PDF reader does not support reflow.
Dictionary Support
The dictionaries are in multiple languages and some can be used for translation. These are a special feature of the ECTACO line of jetBooks. They have a full line of electronic dictionaries.
