But if you want a good one, you will have to spend a lot. Also, be sure to get one appropriate for your skill level. That site has forums where people can help you pick a good one. For example, most are designed for Japanese people, but there are some with more English-speaker friendly menus, setup, etc. There are some where you can write kanji on the screen to look them up, which is great for beginner-intermediate students. If you are more advanced, you might want one with a bigger dictionary (more words).
This is a decent paper dictionary – http://www.amazon.com/Kodanshas-Furigana-Japanese-Dictionary-Japanese-English/dp/4770024800
And http://www.alc.co.jp/ is a fantastic online dictionary.

I would say that will most likely need to have one shipped out of Japan. The only problem is that they tend to be in Japanese, made for Japanese people. I just bought one and I love it, but I got one of the best ones because I knew I was serious about my studies.
