That's interesting. I have a UK-bought Nook which uses the Oxford English dictionary, and it's great - it found "strangury", for example! I was wondering why people were complaining about the dictionary since I've always found it to be very good, but if the US ones use a different dictionary that would explain it. A shame you can't switch!
