As far as I know, the Kindle still does not support Cyrillic fonts. One
title I have seen (Jim Levine's Grammar published by McGraw Hill) worked
around this by making the Cyrillic into images - I don't think that would
make for a very user friendly dictionary.

Hi SEELANGERs
Regarding the recent posts about the new dictionary by Yermlovich, I was
wondering if anyone has had experiences, good or bad, with bilingual
dictionaries in Kindle format. Because I have chronic pain, holding the
Russian-English hardcover Oxford dictionary that I have has become more
difficult, and I've been considering investing in a Kindle version when it
becomes available. If the Yermlovich one doesn't go Kindle, I might look for
the Russian-English Oxford in Kindle format.
Thoughts?
Appreciatively,
Stephanie Briggs
