I do not NEED a dictionary in my ebook reader, but on the other hand the ebook reader software I use already has it. The one in eReader is better as it is available at all times, while Stanza needs to be online to do dictionary lookups, but it does work with ePUBs, so until Fictionwise makes good on their promised ePUB conversion I'll continue to use both.

I guess what I am saying is that I don't NEED dictionary lookup in an ebook reader, but since I already have it, why would I consider another reader only to lose some nice features?
