Thank you for the screen captures. I compared them to the 1986 paper edition that I have (that was the first edition of this dictionary; yes, it's old, that's why I'm thinking of replacing it), and there is nothing that suggests that the Kindle has an abridged version. True, the structure of the 'klant' entry is different (much clearer on the Kindle), and some of the sample sentences have changed, but on the whole there is the same level of detail. And the list of index entries in screen capture #4 has even more entries than my old paper version (of course, in 1986 there was no world wide web yet).
The requirement that you must have a PW2 or better makes the purchase a bit more expensive than I suggested in my previous post, but EUR 140 for these dictionaries is still less than half the list price!

If you happen to have access to a print edition of the Dutch-English version, have a look at the definition screen capture (2_definition_example.png) and compare it with the print edition.
