I was a bit disappointed by this new feature because I thought it meant we'd be able to search all 3 nations at the same time. Today I'm still using the item search from within the wards to check prices and shop. It seems a bit of a useless feature unless they make it search all 3 cities because everyone is still in uldah as far as I can tell. If they can't make it search all cities because of remote purchasing, I think it would be better to remove that feature so that other wards get used more.
