I have looked at the information (and images) about the Sony 700 here on MR and have decided that there are 2 things I do not like about it: (1) no dictionary lookup. I want to be able to double-tap or somehow select a word and have its dictionary definition popup immediately; and (2) the lack of page turning buttons on the right vertical side like the 505 has. (I could care less about wireless but my son, who was anxiously awaiting the Sony announcement, has said that he won't buy the 700 -- or a Sony Reader of any model -- until wireless is available.)

Of the 2 things I do not like about the Sony 700, the deal killer for me is the lack of dictionary support. I would likely buy the 700 (and give my wife my 505) with good dictionary support.
