Just wondering if this is the case and if so if there are any plans to address this in the future. It seems the Kindle dictionary does not suffer from this limitation.
The WHSmith demo devices may have an older version of the firmware on them. Our current version which you will get with a brand new device supports dictionary on Kobo books and sideloaded ePub books as well, gutenberg or otherwise.
