Just a thought concerning the various types of bugs related to dictionary lookup: I would by no means be suprised if the type of bug you get / not get depends on the dictionary (or group of dictionaries) you actually use ...

... for instance, I am only using the Concise Oxford Dictionary and despite having the BooReader Build 476 never encountered the issues HarryT describes, while HarryT (if memory serves me well) uses several dictionaries at once, the Chambers dictionary being one of them.

I.e. maybe:
Chambers dictionary + Build 476 -> hangups, reboots
Oxford dictionary + Builde 476 or 538 -> 'fast / fastidious look-up bug'
