That's a good point about the file manager, Nancy. I've often wished that the file manager were as versatile as the email program. In other words, from the directory of a drive and folder you could space down to a file then invoke a sub-menu with, say, dots 2-6 and the space bar. Then you could browse that file with the book reader, or edit it with the wordprocessor, or delete or rename it.
What do you think?
