There probably will be several new 8" to 10" E-Ink devices by the end of the year.
The 8" DR800 from iRex has been confirmed at "about $400", but because it will not include MobiPocket support the dictionary capabilities of the DR1000 are probably absent. It might be possible to port an open source dictionary app though.
The dictionary capabilities of other likely devices, e.g. from Jinke and Netronix are unknown but probably not present.
The wild cards are devices like the rumoured Asus Eee e-Book Reader. These might have a Pixel Qi screen and be much more general purpose computer like than conventional ebook readers (i.e. a SmartQ with a better screen). No one knows for sure yet.
