Question Kindle 3: Highlight and lookup the definitions for words not in dictionary?

Is there a way to quickly search google or wikipedia for the word under the cursor? If its in the dictionary, I can open up the dictionary entry and then easily go from there to a wikipedia search for that word. However, for words without a dictionary entry (exactly the ones I'd want to wikipedia), I can't find a way to do this, short of typing out the word and manually doing the search, which strikes me as a less than ideal solution. Just pointing the cursor at a word that's not in the dictionary doesn't do anything.
