Judging from what Sony is saying about the 700, it will not have a dictionary, much less a free one. I personally find that a bit strange, although I suppose it has as much to do with legalities as anything else.
While I don't use the wireless feature all that much on my Kindle, I do use the dictionary .... a lot. Especially when reading books by British authors, because while I know some British-isms, I am not fluent in them.
Just tonight, I learned what for me is a new word. "Carboy." I've used them in the laboratory, but we just never called them that. Here, they are generally called "volumetric flasks." But, that's what a carboy is. I would never have known that, but for my handy dandy built in Kindle dictionary ... which I do love.
