I installed the Chambers 10th edition, but it doesn't behave as I would expect.
The lookup works ok, but you can't page forward very far before it drops to the CyBook boot logo.
Also the intial menu displays 5 items: Headword Search, Full Text Search, Cover page, Pronunciation guide, and Copyright.
But, the search items aren't selectable - it seems the only way to look up a definition is to find the word in a text, and take the 'Lookup' option from there. I was hoping I could browse it like a pDictionary.

I wondered if it was behaving like this because I intially put it on my SD card - but it does the same if it's on the device.

I got it my copy from Books on Board - they said it was 'easy to navigate'
I've tried downloading it a few times in case it was a transfer issue but it makes no difference.

I'm clearly doing something wrong, but I can't figure out what
