Correct me if i am wrong, but using the dictionary converter which can be downloaded both from the american site and from the main site allows you to already convert dictionaries to be used on the pocketbook and if you do this it does not cost you anything.

I already have lingvo universal converted both en-ru and ru-en, so it does already convert both ways. Also I am sure other language dictionaries can be found to convert.

What then are the advantages to buying the drm'ed software that Pocketbook will provide. (especially if they are proctected and you will not be able to move them to different devices)

I look forward to being corrected if i have misundertood the advantages which pocketbook plan for the dictionaries.
Are the dictionaries you converted free or did you have to buy them in another format before converting them? If they were free, they may not be as good as the commercial ones (as up to date, or as comprehensive). If not, I don't know how easy converting is, but if I were to give my money anyway I'd prefer to buy a product already suited to my needs.
