I'm switching from a Nook to an Android, and I'm looking for an ereader that I can link directly to a dictionary app. (It'll be either Merriam-Webster or OED or maybe both.) I learned from another post that dictionaries are not standardized yet for ereaders.

I also have some other desires (ability to hyperlink outside the .epub, ability to access notes without opening epub) but the dictionary is the biggie.

I use Calibre and read only epubs. None of my epubs have DRM, except library books. I'll probably use CC, but that's not as vital as the dictionary.

Does anyone have any recommendations or references to somewhere I can find out about this stuff?
