I guess having a dictionary on board an e-reader is a "nice add on" that doesn't cost much and adds value to the product. I think I have a reasonable level of comprehension in English but I've been reading a paperback book recently written by an Academic which uses some words I've not come across. And not having a dictionary to hand (I was reading on the train commute to work) was a bit aggravating. First time I admit I would have appreciated a dictionary.
Perhaps e-readers are also aimed at gadget loving people who don't "normally" see themselves as buyers of books and heavy readers?
