Obviously I would prefer to have a reading device with a bigger screen - 6 or 8 incher would be prefect. I have been using Mobipocket with its dictionaries and instant look up option for years. I know I would not buy any e-ink reader device which does not have that feature well implemented.
Hence my questions :
Which ebook reader has the quickest lookup option ?
I know Cybook has similar option - but it seems that it takes ages before you get to the word you dont know,then a new dictionary page opens, and then you need to get back to the page you are just reading, I know Kindle lookup is quicker but I live in Europe. Is there any device on the market which would fit my needs or I need to wait until 3rd generation of ebook rearders hit the market (txtr, kindle 3.0 Europe edition , bebook 2 etc).
When I think of my old Ebookman I cannot understand why it is so hard to implement such an indispensable (at least for me) function.

I'd say, wait till the next generation of readers hit the market. I am personally waiting for the BeBook 2, mainly because it has touchscreen. I just don't even want to imagine how I have to highlight a certain word with buttons only...
