Dictionary on Android tablet
This is sort of off topic, and everyone may know it. I read my Kobo books both on my Kobo Glo, and with the Kobo app on my Samsung Galaxy tablet. On the Glo, long-pressing a word brings up the dictionary definition. On the tablet it brings up the definition, plus links to check out the word on Wikipedia or on Google. That's a very useful feature, since it allows you to check historical or other facts as well as just simple definitions.

On topic: I use a Websters dictionary on my Glo, and after every sync have to transfer it anew. It would be nice if Kobo would allow you in "settings" to set a default dictionary.
