It may be once every 2-3 years, if that, when I pull out a dictionary. Never something I seem to need.

It’s bursty for me, too. I won’t use one for ages, then I read something like Infinite Jest where I’m looking something up every other page. That’s super easy on Kobo readers and I’d hate not having it elsewhere.

I'd just use my phone, honestly. It's in my pocket and has access to much of the worlds information.

And now I'm reading/writing with 2 devices. Eh.

You're already carrying that device though, it's not an addition to your pocket. In fact, I'd argue the 2nd device is actually a problem.

No, you are. Not everyone reads when they have their phone on them, or otherwise have their phone on them 24/7. When I'm reading, my phone is at least on a table, if not in another room.

		Ah, that's fair! I guess I consider a device like that, for me, to be mostly used when traveling!
