Hi,
I want to do digital dictionary project. Project details are as follows...

This will be portable device.
Function:
We have to enter the word from keypad. And the description of that word will be displayed on our LCD.

Hardware:
1. Controller
2. Keypad ( Query or mobile keypad)
3. Graphical LCD
4. EEPROM

According to me:
We have enter the word from keypad. The controller will search the word from the dictionary database stored in EEPROM & if found then it will retrieve the related things from EEPROM and display on the LCD.

MY Problem:
1. Which MCU will be perfect for this project ?
2. Is there any dictionary database available to be loaded into EEPROM ?
3. What will be searching algorithm ?


Request to all , if anyone can help me on above things then i will be ever grateful to him...

You have to know how many pins you have to use for the keypad, same as the LCD display, in resume, the external peripheral I/O.
Starting from this you may want a certain EEPROM memory.. I should take a look to PIC or some AVR.
You can program both on Windows or Linux, an AVR does not need any IDE, with Linux you can program it in VI too :D you just need the correct header files..
