Hi Everyone

I know I have been harping on about this but I just can't get a definitive answer (or one that works).

Since amazon upgraded my Kindle Keyboard to OS3.4 the Merriam-Webster spanish translation dictionary no longer works with it. Neither does the free EGC Spanish top English dictionary.

Bother dictionaries claim to be Spanish in the metadata. The newspapers claim to be Spanish in the metadata, but they don't work together.

Spanish books downloaded from Amazon work, but not those I've tried from Gutenburg Project - though both are set to Spanish in the metadata.

The dictionaries are set to Default Dictionary. Amazon don't even reply to my queries beyond running me through setting a defauilt dictionary each time

I would be beyond grateful for any suggestion - or even a low cost spanish-spanish dictionary I could try.

Thanks everyone
