I have some questions regarding Duokan.

First of all, is a version for this year's new Kindle (is it called Kindle 5?) and Kindle Paperwhite coming? I currently don't own a Kindle but I'm thinking of buying one of this year's new models. I would only use it to read books in Chinese and Spanish, so this dictionary function is very important to me.

Secondly, does the Chinese-English StarDict dictionary work like the original Kindle firmware's dictionary, where I just need to highlight a word to get a translation?

Thirdly, are there Spanish-English dictionaries as well, or would I need to uninstall and install Duokan when I want to switch between reading Chinese books and Spanish? That would be very impractical, as you understand.
