I work a lot switching between 4 languages and dictionaries are very important to me, and some are just way better than others.
Sony also use the Oxford Dictionary for English, but not nearly as large a version of it as the Kindle has. There are numerous words that the Kindle will find, but the Sony won't (or at least, that was the case at the time I had my PRS-350, and I doubt that Sony have improved the dictionary).
