Google, no, since they use the ePub format which the Kindle doesn't support, but Overdrive, yes, at least in the US where Overdrive are now supplying Kindle-format books.
Yes. When you highlight a word on the Kindle you can either look in up in the dictionary, or search for it either in Wikipedia or on Google. |
I stand corrected.
For the Overdrive OTA borrowing, I believe on Kindle you have to use a computer first to borrow a book from the Overdrive website, then send the book to Kindle wirelessly. The Sony T1 has a Overdrive app that lets you access its website and borrow and download, just like buying from the Sony or Kindle ebookstore from the device.
