PRS-600 Replacing dictionary on PRS-600

SieGHe · 03-02-2010, 06:59 AM

Hello everybody.

I think the "official" sony dictionaries are very useful and I love how the eReader links your readings with them. But I miss we can't replace them with differents ones of our choice.

As far as I know, it could be done only hacking the device and using an specific dictionary-file format that allows those links. May be somebody knows how to do so and can help me.

Thanks.

There were some attempts, but no success so far.

I was hoping I will find the affirmative answer to this question in the similar thread, but people got carried away with off-topic

Igrosk, what seemed to be the problem with existing/new dictionaries? Reverse engineering the existing ones and compiling the new ones?
