I think it's actually good to have a dictionary. My ereader doesn't really have one and I don't miss the function but that's because I'm used to not looking up words when I'm reading a physical, paper book. That and I tend to read cheap, contemporary books. Most of what I don't know I can use context clues to guess at. But yeah, a dictionary function is nice to have. Though most people probably don't really need it (I mean no one goes around carrying a dictionary with the book they're reading. But then, an ereader I would think, should not only emulate the reading experience and also enrich it. Otherwise what's the point of paying $100+ for an ereading device?)
