British/English Dictionary Instead of American

My home place use British English but the K4 PC comes with the American dictionary. Not that the meanings are different but the pronunciations.

I read that the UK Kindle 3 comes with both dictionaries.

Is there a way to install and use the British dictionary on K4 PC instead?

Thanks in advance.

I have read somewhere (not sure where) that the ability to change dictionaries will be added to a future version of K4PC - you may want to contact Kindle Support for a definite answer or date.

Thanks for the heads-up. I've contacted Amazon support before and have had enough of their canned responses, for now.

I'll wait...
