is there exists a good ereader without one big weakness? (just asking.. )
- kindle 2; no pdf lookup
- sony; glare
- gen3; bugs
- nook; slow
- pocketbook; no american oxford lookup (my fav dictionary!)
Thank you for the karma. And no, there is no super-ereader out there. If you want dictionary it's quite frustrating.
So far you have a couple of options:
Bookeen - Cybook with mobi firmware. The best atm but firmware is dead end and so is format. Pity. Lots of commercial dictionaries available.
Sony - Looks interesting but I see no options of adding dictionaries. And it's English only.
Kindle - No adding dictionaries. English only.
Pocketbook - dic format (stardict ?). No commercial dictonaries available. You can make your own but you'll need a good source. Not sure if you can translate mobi ones into this format. If it's possible it could be great.
If you have anything to add to this feel free to comment...
