I'm not sure, perhaps on http://www.jetbook.net/ ?
I see 2 menu items:
"Register Your Jetbook"
"Update Your Jetbook"

Anybody knows if it is possible to replace the dictionaries on the jebtbook color?

I mean like on the Amazon Kindles.

That's one of the most important things to me in a reader.

You can try installing different versions of the firmware. I've seen a Rus-eng and a Spa-eng one. Probably there are other versions too.

I'm not sure if you can reprogram Spa-eng to Rus-eng and vice versa. For examle jetbook mini has interface for several languages but has no dictionaries. We have to wait and see what options will be available for jetBook Color. It will be nice to have several dictionaries for different languages preloaded on the same unit.

I installed the latest Rus-Eng version replacing the Spa-Eng version myself. (I thought it might include some new features since it was released on the 16.02.)

About half an hour. There are still other laguages for the interface (apart from Russian) and the only difference in terms of content is the main dictionary which is now RUS-ENG, everything else is exactly the same.

So it seems that no third parties dictionaries will be available, right?
Also no more than 1 dictionary at the same time.
Also only official dictinaries using official firmware are available...
If dictionaries can only be replaced using the firmware.
Bad news.
