Oh some people here hate it when people say the forums are outdated. I totally agree with you though. 🤣

I have a Kindle. I don’t buy books from Amazon, but I do borrow library books and I have a KU subscription. The books I do buy I purchase from other stores and sideload them via USB as I stated previously. WiFi isn’t required to use the dictionary. I don’t even use the dictionaries Amazon provides because I don’t like them. I’ve add a 3rd party dictionary.

About Bluetooth, if it's easier to use along the WiFi, then it can be added, but WiFi is the priority here.
I’m not the target audience for your ereader since I’m primarily a library reader. With that said though I’d never buy an indie ereader that doesn’t have Bluetooth so I can use a Bluetooth page turner.
