And another plus for amazon and their kindles : their dictionnaries are exceptional.

If I was only reading in english, I guess I could be very happy with kobo. But as the kids have these 4 languages (french, spanish, english and german) also at school, dictionaries are important. Now my oldest is also learning mandarin and I need to look into that for his kindle, don't know wether it would be possible at all fro him to read mandarin books on it...
It's nice to know that the dictionaries are so good. Thanks!
