Er, what? At least in the Kindle app on Honeycomb, you just long press a word to see its definition.

- juliano_q 15y agoYep, I read using the Kindle app every day and since I am not a native english speaker I use this function a lot and it works quite well.
- technoslut 15y agoYou don't understand that the Kindle is geared towards something very specific. Apple is building an entire OS. You can three-finger tap to get the dictionary, after highlighting, in iOS 5. Sidenote: Apple views these gestures as the equivalent to keyboard shortcuts. For the end user you want to create the obvious so they won't be confused.
- CrazedGeek 15y agoI don't think that select and three-finger-tap is anywhere close to obvious- doing anything with more than two fingers is already pretty rare on iOS.
