Question Orizon dictionary & notes

I am considering on buying bookeen orizon but i did not find anything about dictionary or glossary support. On youtube videos there is nothing. Has it build-in or i have to installs custom dictionary?

Does it also support english <-> german, english <-> slovak, english <-> czech
dictionaries like PocketBook 603?

How it is with taking notes in ebooks. Is it enough ergonomic?

I can not try Orizon anywhere near my place physically that's why i'm asking... I want to buy it online...

thanks in advanced

As far as I know, Bookeen readers support dictionaries only with the Mobipocket firmware. Mobipocket has a special format for dictionaries, and you can use multiple dictionaries, which you can buy or find for free.

With the ePUB firmware there is no dictionary support. In fact, there are no ePUB dictionaries, and readers that support dictionaries with ePUB have their own format for them or use some other format.

But I don't have an Orizon, so I can't tell for sure.

No dictionary. Might come at some point with firmware update, but well.... So if dictionary are important to you, wait until the update is acctually there.

Right now, taking note is ok. Reading them, on the other hand. you can only browse notes with "first" "last" "next" "previous" and have to use "edit note" to read it.
