I was going to post again on this thread as I couldn't believe some of the postings since yesterday. However - this one pretty much sums things up nicely!
Having had my 350 a couple of weeks and not read the manual, I've only just found the double tap the word to open the dictionary. I hope they gave the tech who came up with the original idea for that a big bonus that year. So easy.
