This may have been suggested before but I was just thinking what a great portable dictionary the Kindle makes.
I've been lying out on my deck reading
(DTB only)
and as usual had my Kindle next to me in case I wanted to switch books. I ran across several words with which I wasn't familiar (Magdalenian culture and ungulate, although I should have known the second), and I just turned on the Kindle and looked them up. So nice not to have to get up to check the big dictionary. The preloaded dictionary is quite decent.
