I would like to repeat the questions by pinket about the dictionaries, because this is the only thing that stands between me and defecting from Sony to Kobo

Hi Sameer or other Kobo associate,

I have some questions about the Kobo Glo specs.

Dictionaries
1. Different language dictionaries possible?
2. How many languages and or which?
3. Can custom dictionaries be downloaded and installed?
4. Can words be added to a dictionary?

Question 4 is less important to me, but I am very, very much used to the 2 english dictionaries and the french, german and dutch translation dictionaries on my Sony.

For me one of the coolest things about e-reading is the easy and immediate access to dictionaries while reading. Compared to the paper days this is such a wonderful improvement.
