I love Wikipedia.
I do not care about dictionaries, but the first e-ink reader that can hold, search, and display in reasonable manner a complete database dump of Wikipedia, THAT would be something ...

Well, that would be the Kindle . There is some question and controversy about the whether access to the internet will always be free on the Kindle. However, as to Wikipedia it is quite clear. The sales material says quite specifically that it comes with free access to wikipedia. Of course it is US-only for now and I don't know where you live, so it might not fit your definition of 'available'.
