Dictionary at your fingertips

Yep... it sure is... and it makes your Kindle that much more valuable. You might even stretch yourself a bit with the books you choose knowing you have a quick and easy way to look up anything you might not be familiar with.

To look up a word, use your toggle switch (5 way controller) to place the cursor immediately to the left of the word in question. Push it up or down, or to the left or right. The moment you begin manipulating the switch, you will see the cursor.

Once you have the cursor where you want it, the definition will appear. If you need to see more, press the little down arrow button (last button on the right, 4th row).

When you are finished reading the definition, press the Back button to continue reading where you left off.

You're going to be soooooo smart!
