You would have needed that wink emoticon on about every other sentence. The whole post seemed to be about your reasons for "avoiding" dictionaries.

It's really rather simple to avoid dictionaries. You just don't pick one up and open it. The same principle works with dictionaries on ebook readers. There's one on the Kindle. It is a great thing to have. I seriously doubt that it added to the cost of the Kindle, and had I not wanted it, I could have deleted it ... or just never opened the file up and looked up a word.

I also like the fact that, if I do not wish to use the default dictionary, I may purchase any other dictionary available for mobi, and install that dictionary and use that instead.

Personally, I think it's rather sad that SONY has had an ebook reader out on the market for this long and has never added dictionary functionality. Not even as an option.
