Apologies for taking so long to update this thread! I had heard rumours that an Irish bookshop would be selling their own ereader (the Eason Leaf) and emailed them to ask if it would include an Irish-English dictionary... still no reply from them so I guess not...

Creating a compatible dictionary for the Pocketbook looks
pretty tricky. Dunno if I'd be able to manage the morphems.txt file with my poor Irish :-( I might give it a whirl, though.
Hm, the Onyx 62 looks interesting. I'll keep looking into it!
The K5 Kindle Touch also might be an option, if those weird dictionary issues in previous Touch models have been resolved. Hmm...
I'd be getting my Irish-English dictionary from
here,
here or

I did initially consider rooting my T1, but by all accounts
the T1/Coolreader-FBReader combo is a bit of a mess
