On one hand, we’re pretty impressed that someone would actually bother to produce an e-dictionary this fancy. On the other, we’re disheartened that those very “someones” didn’t just throw a real-deal OS on here and call it a UMPC. Hannuri Biz’s newest premium pocket dictionary goes by Nurian X40Kris and features a 4.3-inch LCD, QWERTY keyboard, 4GB of internal storage, 79 different dictionaries (saywha?) and support for XviD, PDF, Flash, JPEG and MP3 files. We’re told that it’ll be offered up in South Korea for ₩379,000 ($253), and we’re giving it around a fortnight before someone shoves a TV tuner and their favorite flavor of Linux on here and calls it a day.
