But how much room does a decent dictionary take up? Equivalent to one typical e-book novel? Five? Fifty? And is there already something available for the Sony PRS-500/505? Free? Payware?

the Webster's eDictionary ver. 2.0 which came pre-installed on my eb1150 takes up 6% of my "bookshelf" (that's what they call the memory card). i should mention, my bookshelf has an awe-inspiring capacity of 64 mo. that's right, SIXTY-FOUR !!! yeah baby. you'll have to do the maths to figure out what 6% of 64mo is, as i am *also* quite lazy sometimes.
[EDIT : oh, and i should mention, even long books rarely take up more than 1%. Mansfield Park with several full-screen illustrations takes up around 4%. I currently have 95 books on my bookshelf with 4.7 mo (7%) free. hey ! look at that ! now we know that the 6% the dictionary takes up is less than 4.7mo. no brain work required. nice !]
