I don't plan on buying a new ebook reader anytime soon, so if they get a dictionary out before or around the time the Notion Ink Adam is released I'll have to think long and hard about which device to get.

For me a Wikipedia based dictionary would have not met my needs as it is more of an encyclopedia. I rather like how the Sony and Kindle give a brief definition at the bottom of the screen while keeping the page in place and then allowing you to see the definition in the dictionary if you want more details.

I wouldn't have minded Wikipedia being an additional feature, but it could never be a main dictionary in my opinion.
