Hello. I am trying to choose an ebook reader (i've only ever owned an old reb 1200), and I've pretty much decided that I am going to place an order for the DR800SG as soon as it becomes available again on the Best Buy website. It seems to be the perfect size for me, and I like that it's a touchscreen and takes a memory card - and i couldn't care less that i need to use a stylus.
Does anyone know yet how easy it will be to look up a word in the dictionary? I actually like how that works on the Kindle 2 but i can't stand using the five way controller to navigate.
Does either the Iliad or the DR1000 have a decent dictionary function?

A great dictionary feature isn't necessary, but it would make the DR800SG just about perfect for me.

Thanks
