I don't need a fancy way to look up words. When I find a word I don't know, I just want to quit out of my book, go to the dictionary eBook, then skip ahead using alphabetical bookmarks to find the definition of the word in question.

Does such a thing exist in Adobe eBook or another Reader compatible format?

So far it's been a frustrating and fruitless search. Personally, I can't believe there isn't a basic dictionary on the Sony store. Why on earth wouldn't they have one for sale?
If a dictionary is important to you, I'm a little curious about why you bought a Sony Reader. Wouldn't buying a device which supports dictionaries, such as the Kindle or the CyBook, have been more sensible?
