I need a good electronic dictionary for my studies. Now I am torn between Webster's Third New International Dictionary, Unabridged (http://www.ereader.com/product/detail/12573) and Merriam-Webster's CollegiateŽ Dictionary, Eleventh Edition (http://www.ereader.com/product/detail/11673). Price and memory requirements don't really matter. I know many recommend the Collegiate dictionary, but how does it compare to the Unabridged International dictionary?

I have been using the Collegiate Dictionary with eReader and it works very well. I didn't even know they had the Unabridged as an e-book version! I guess you could call this the most complete English dictionary that is available for handheld devices!

As to which one I would prefer... well if you gave me the choice and if money does not matter, I would of course go for the big one - more information = more fun ;)
