I prefer Oxford - but some people prefer Webster's.

With annual Firmware updates - as the dictionaries evolve.
There should be no need for Firmware updates once the dictionary is supported. The user should be able to select the dictionary by some method that does not need firmware upgrades. There just needs to be a defined format for encoding the dictionary that can be followed by the dictionary maker. Some eBook readers support multiple dictionaries simultaneously so there is not really a need to have to select one. You could, for example, have dictionary folder that is consulted by the software and use all the dictionaries you find in there.
