Amazon recently introduced Search Inside the Book, offering the possibility to search the text of the books they offer. While this is NEWNEWNEW it is next to useless compared to adding missing basic features to amazon's normal search and browse functionalities.
Currently there is not even a NOT, it is impossible to search for e.g. vampire stories _not_ written by Ann Rice. The browsing pages are cluttered with items not available at amazon itself, but only from third-parties ("Marketplace"), I usually would like to filter these out, as I am not particularily interested in paying about EUR 3 delivery fees for an EUR 7 product. Amazon does not offer this feature.
