The way that dictionary lookup works on the Gen3 is pretty good, even though it doesn't have a stylus. You select "Lookup Mode" from the menu, and that gives you a "word highlight" cursor on the screen, which you can move up, down, left, right with the navigation control. Once the word you want to look up is selected, you press the "Select" key and it looks up the word in the dictionary.
