We took a look at the Windows Phone app The Quote a while back and found it to be a nice app for our Windows Phone but with room for improvement. Improvements that the latest update, version 2.8, brings to the table.

Version 2.8 brings a search feature and performance tweaks that improves load speeds. The Search feature is your basic keyword search to hunt for a particular author or topic. It's a nice feature when you're looking for a specific quote and don't have the time to surf through the library.
