I have been searching for electronic dictionaries for my n-gage, but good ones, like oxford or collin's. Are there any available? maybe in ebook format? any information welcome.

I am exceptionally interested in a Japanese -> English -> Japanese dictionary. I know there is CSJDic, but it is quite expensive. Does anyone know of any others, preferably freeware, or at least cheaper, and places to get them?

My advice would be this dictionary, together with the Mobipocket Reader. The reader is free (standard version), but the dictionary is not. I think it's worth it though. I've used this eBook reader and dictionary for almost two years on my P800, P900 and N-Gage, and find it very useful. Especially when I'm reading an eBook and need to look up a word (very useful for a non-native English speaking person like myself 😊 ).

thanks a lot for the advice. I will probably try the mobipocket one. If I find anything better, I'll make sure to post it here.

Slovo-Ed doesn't support Japanese in any way, shape or form. I'd know, I've checked it out. Anyone else care to chuck in their two cents?
