P800 has e-reader, but where can we download e-books or e-dictionary? Any web sites?

I am guessing that reading a book on the p800 would be painful.

I want to read a real book while using the p800 as a dictionary. Right now when I read I also have this huge dictionary with me. I bought my mom a little electronic dictionary to use when she reads, and I was going to get one for myself, but if I can get a dictionary for my phone, it would be awesome since I carry my phone always anyway.

I am definitely getting the p800 regardless though when it comes out for AT&T in about a month. Can't wait...

Mobipocket reader is a trial ebook reader app, ive tried it & yes there is a dictionary available, also for those who think reading would be hard look at these features of mobipocket reader;
Choose background colour of pages
choose type face
choose font size
Choose font colour
Set "auto scroll" to scroll the book at your chosen speed, using the jog dial to set your exact reading speed/or stopping for a break.
If you recieve a call /message the reader goes back to where u left off after.

Why do you need a dictionary with you while you read?. Im a heavy reader also, though I must say ive never come across anyone needing to carry a dictionary around with them. Is it because English is your 2nd language?. This message was posted from a T68i

You are saying that when you are reading literature you know the meaning and nuance of every word used? Why don't you try reading something that isn't junk, and get back to me about not needing a dictionary.

Any time I come across a word I don't know, even if I can infer the meaning from the text, I look it up.

@Spike731, the question was asking if a dictionary was available on the p800, the fact that one is available as an ebook is one way to get a dictionary, but it does not restrict the user to ONLY use it for when reading, its use may be primarily for mms or sms writing.
Just because it comes on the ebook reader you have naively linked it ONLY for use when reading.
