When you accidentally go to the end of a book in Word, which I have
done, there isn't even an undo command.

I seriously doubt that this is very practical and it would not be trivial to implement. It would mean that the Book Port firmware would constantly have to be monitoring your position in the document, recording that location somewhere, then redoing the whole thing after you complete some defined boundary (word, sentence, paragraph, page). The processing overhead would be very extreme. Undoing a move is nothing at all like undoing a change in Microsoft Word or something similar on a desktop computer (which has a vastly more powerful microprocessor). Also, in the two years that I've owned a Book Port, this is the first time I've heard this problem. When you say that you held down "a key," that seems to imply that you haven't read the manual, since you'd know which key you held down. The 1 key held down for one beep takes you to the beginning of the file; the 2 key held down for one beep takes you to the end of the file.

Any chance of adding undo in a future firmware update? While power move etc are ok it is not like hitting one or two keys and bookport putting you back where you were. I don't suppose it would be a hugely difficult feature to implement and I am sure many users would find it of use.
