Dictionary lookup is one of those things which you can get on very happily without but, when you get it, you suddenly find that it's just amazingly useful. When I changed from a Sony to a CyBook I didn't think the dictionary would be any big deal, but then I bought a decent dictionary for the Gen3 and I suddenly found myself using it all the time. If you read 19th century books (as I do a lot) you come across all sorts of words that yes, you can guess the meaning of from their context, generally speaking, but it's so nice to be able to easily look up their exact meaning. Not only increases your vocabulary, but enrichens the reading experience too.
