I agree.  I would expect that "previous page" or "Previous paragraph"
actually means previous rather than beginning of the current unit.

| One of the things we have considered is making the back keys
| always move
| to the previous unit instead of going back to the beginning of
| the unit
| if you are so far into it.  In other words, Back Page would
| always go to
| the previous page and not to the beginning of the current page.

| I have the same problem with my original unit.  I wonder if it's
| like
| what happens when you are playing a cd and you hit the previous
| track
| to go back and find your self at the beginning of that track.
| Thus,
| you have to press the back button twice to actually get past the
| previous occurrence.  I realize that people actually get stuck on
| the
| Book Port no matter how many times one presses the previous
| command.
| I wonder if it's just a matter of how quickly the previous
| section
| keys get recognized by the bookport.  The forward keys would not
| seem
| to be a problem because one needs only one press to get to the
| next
| section.

| A lot of times when I press the 4, the BP seems to get hung up
| and
| will not=20
| go back the specified paragraph.  This has happened ever since I

| Bookport in early January, before the Betas.  It's no big deal...

|
| slightly annoying.
