I'm not familiar with specific dictionaries, but I'm wondering how "complete" either one of these are. My wife would love to have a dictionary again to look up unusual words (she loved that on the Rocket Ebook we had).

The problem was that the dictionary the Rocket used was pathetic. It pretty much only had definitions for words we already new. For truly unusual words, it was useless. (It used Random House Webster's Concise Dictionary). That was probably due, in large part, to the memory restrictions.

I would just like to find out if the dictionary on the sony is a "real" dictionary.
