I am using a Kindle and also a computer. I really, really like the ability to quickly look up a word meaning. I was under the impression that it is the reader that has the dictionary, not the format. Am I wrong in this. Do TXT and PRC/Mobi/AZW use different dictionaries when I look up something on my Kindle? I was not aware until this thread that the Sony Reader didn't have a dictionary but then I don't have a Sony because they don't want Apple users as customers.
