Hello all,
I plan to buy an eReader (kindle PW or Kobo Glo or Aura). One of the criterion of selection is how good they are to handle dictionaries.

What I would like to do is to click on one word in a book and see a popup with it's translation from language to french, language being at least English, Spanish and German, but support for more "exotics" languages would be a big plus. I know that it's more or less doable with the kobos (with a hack) but what about the kindle PW ? And how easy is to find good dictionaries (for not too expensive if possible) and install them in these readers ?

Thanks for your help
