How often do you read books in other languages? Me, I very seldom read german books (which is my mother tongue). But if I do, I have no need for a dictionary! With other languages, it depends on how fluent I am and if I kinda "know" that author and his style.
BTW: If I need /want to look up a word, it's always a NOW situation for me!

OK, please tell us about those benefits...
Don't get me wrong, I see the possibilities/advantages of ePub and that it is assured of a good future. And Sony has improved that with his built-in dictionary support for the new reader(s). But right now and on the Opus... what am I missing?
