This one works only with the buttons on Pocketbook Pro, letters chosing by marking it and pressing the round button.
When you are converting dictionaries yourself, you should use the new converter, because the new converter supports the better keyboard layout which supports stylus stroking.

Hi Wolf, thanks for your reply and the interesting information. Yes, I was referring to the 3x3 letter block layout. I have never tried the dictionary-converter before since I was just using the preinstalled dictionaries, so I haven't yet noticed that there are different dict formats using different keyboard-layouts.

Still it's really nasty since we aren't able to convert the "old" built-in proprietary dictionaries (especially those from lingvo) into "new" ones which have the new touch-enabled keyboard-layout. Is there any chance that the old dicts will get converted to use the new keyboard?
