On a Windows machine, though, it's really no big deal to just use a Mobi dictionary in a separate window, and just type in the word that you want to look up.

I was hoping to get a double-click software, I'm waiting for the Asus T91 with Multitouch to read all my tech pdfs in TabletPc form. Typing the word in a separate window would be a bit tiresome.

The Windows Desktop MobiPocket Reader Download Page says:
Quote:
Even better: with Reader 6, you can activate the lookup function in all your Windows applications. If you need to know what that french web site says about your latest publication and memories of your French classes are remote, Reader 6 can help. Just select the word in your web browser and press the Mobipocket hot key. All matches from your Mobipocket dictionaries will appear instantly.
However, I have not seen any mention of this elsewhere on mobipocket's site and have no idea how to set this up.
