Hello,
I just purchased the Sony PRS 700 and am a little overwhelmed by all the choices Just wondering if anyone can recommend a good dictionary to upload. Any other recommendations?
Thanks

Hi Joanna and welcome to MobileRead. Not only is the Sony overwhelming, it's also addictive.

Welcome to MobileRead, Joanna!

You might want to wait until the end of August to see if Sony comes out with the expected firmware update that will include a dictionary and look-up capability. If you can't wait there is an Epub dictionary here at MR that you can download. Good luck.

Happy Reading!

If Sony comes out with those, will current owners be able to download it to their readers?
Thanks!

There's talk that the firmware update we're expecting will give us the dictionary options. We won't actually know for sure until Sony makes the official announcements (August 24) or the update is made available. I'm keeping my fingers, toes, and eyes crossed that it is included!
