It doesn't sound very promising for a dictionary for this device. I was hoping to buy one, but without a dictionary I won't be buying one. I guess I'll just have to wait for a Notion Ink Adam. I would still prefer the DR800SG for the 8" screen over the Adam as an ebook reader.

I would hope that Irex along with Sony, Adobe, Barnes & Noble and other ebook makers would be pushing for a dictionary support for the epub standard. I guess they can't adopt the Mobipocket tags due to copyright issues. If they could it would be real easy to recompile the new dictionary and use the Adobe DRM, but unfortunately I'm sure Amazon would be opposed to that since they own Mobipocket.
