The PRS-600's zoom is for a single page at a time, it is not appropriate for reading a book.

E-book Reader Matrix: Larger Devices provides a good overview. The 8" screen in landscape is the same width as the DR1000's 10.2" screen in portrait mode. The iLiad software is long in the tooth, but its PDF support is good (no dictionary lookup for PDFs though). A better bet might be to wait for the DR800, which is presumably like the DR1000 but smaller. It won't include MOBI support, and so its dictionary capability is unknown (and perhaps absent entirely).
