The Sony PRS-600/900, Kindle, and iPad, all have excellent dictionaries. I don't know if any other readers also do...
Exactly. I used to gloss over them and just assume I knew what they meant. With my 900 now it is so easy to look things up I end up looking up almost everything now. That is one of the reasons I wanted the touch screen, to make those look up easier. I'm lazy and if I had to use arrow buttons to navigate to a word to look up I'd still be glossing over the words.
