The Amazonpedia widget allows you to search every Amazon site for Books, DVDs, CDs and Games, as well as giving you access to all your Pedia applications at once. Along with the search results, the widget will tell you about the status of an item - whether you own it, if its on your wish list or if somebody borrowed it and when its due back. And thanks to the powerful search that combines all of the Pedias into one, you dont have to switch back and forth between applications anymore when looking for an entry.

Searching high and low
From the top bar of the widget, choose what youd like to search for in Amazon - books, DVDs, CDs or games - or whether youd like to do a local search of the Pedias. Then enter a keyword into the search field and hit return. On the backside of the widget you can choose which Amazon site youd like to search (US, Canada, UK, Germany, France or Japan) and how youd like the search to be sorted. You can also choose which Pedias to include in your localized search. dashboard plus sign
