For frequent dictionary usage *right now*, I would suggest looking at Kindle 2 or Sony 600 (if the screen glare doesn't bother you). If you can wait, Kindle 3 should be caught up to pre-orders in September, and Sony is supposed to be announcing new models in a few weeks.

I'm not as familiar with the PocketBook models, but they also offer custom dictionary options.

ETA: I don't recommend the Nook. Not only is the dictionary sparse, but looking up words is cumbersome.
