If someone wants to try the dictionary support in the new bebook firmware -- just start with the Longman Dictionary of Contemporary English (the demo version from the official mobipocket website). The dictionary search does not work the same way as it does on all the other mobi-supported devices. Probably in the future it will be improved.
So, open the Longman Dict. on your V3, press "7", press "1" (Dictionary search), press "Ok" button, press "1" ... and you've got the keyboard ... start typing what you want to find in the "Index" list and press "Ok". Other dictionaries (for example Collins) may not work because the "index" part in those prc-books is not properly created.
Such searching is extremely slow and painful which makes it basically useless, especially if one compares the convenience of that with the mobi-dictionary support on Symbian or Palm.
