(You need to use the little four-way controller to move the cursor to the word to look up. it then shows a short definition at the bottom of the screen, and you can go to the long definition by clicking the centre button.)
I find it to be quicker than looking up definitions on my (touch screen) PRS-600. I can't say if the new Sonys are faster, though. I like the 4-way on my Kindles because they put the cursor exactly where I want it. Same for copying text. It's much more precise.
