I have more information on the Encarta dictionary issue. I contacted Microsoft and they have been working with me. They were able to run the dictionary ok. I have a friend who has an X30 and Encarta works fine on his unit. The only difference is the build # of Windows. His is 14049 and mine is 142260.2.0.5. I believe this puts the problem squarely on the Dell X50V.
** I have found a workaround that allows the Encarta dictionary to work**
Open another book in Reader
Tap on a word and a menu will appear
Tap lookup at the bottom
A window will pop up with the definition
You can now change the word at the top and tap return and it will look up the new word.
I have tried this numerous times and it has worked each time.
