Can I change the dictionary?
I have a Nook ST Glo, and I am wanting to know if I can change the default dictionary or at least add others?
I dont like the Webster's dictionary and would prefer to use an OED or one that uses spelling from my country. |

Not without rooting it. There have been several earlier threads about dictionaries; I suggest you do a search (although the answer is no, so that's what you will find )

I wonder if this is something that B & N are planning to add? If I look up a word it has an option to "change dictionary", but Oxford English is the only one available. Also under 'Settings' there's a "Manage Dictionaries" option, but again only the Oxford one is listed.

I agree, it sounds promising! That would really be nice.
