Do you really believe that the Gen3's mode of dictionary lookup is impractical? I find that it works beautifully! It has a "Lookup Mode" selected from a menu, in which a word becomes highlighted. You can move the highlight, a word at a time, up, down, left, right using the navigation control. When the correct word is highlighted, you press the "Select" button to look it up.

Why do you believe this would be impractical on the Sony? It should work equally well, I'd have thought!
