Merriam-Webster's Collegiate Dictionary For iPhone And iPod Touch

Paragon Software Group has launched Merriam-Webster's Collegiate Dictionary, Eleventh Edition for iPhone and iPod touch. The dictionary is now available on the App Store.

The best-selling Collegiate Dictionary was tailor-made for the special characteristics and unique features of the iPhone. Merriam-Webster's database contains 225,000 entries, including more than 10,000 new words and definitions, which can be accessed anywhere, anytime, without Internet connection or additional charges.

Merriam-Webster's Collegiate® Dictionary features an easy-to-use, single-click application to access definitions instantly. The SlovoEd engine compresses the dictionary content to a minimum of memory space while allowing the user to perform multiple learning, word reference and translation functions as quickly as possible. The "History" feature shows the last 15 translated words, and the "Cross-Lookup" feature is an easy check of language comprehension.

Merriam-Webster’s Collegiate Dictionary sells for US$24.99 (19, 99 EUR) in the App Store. The program is supported by iPhones with firmware 2.0, iPhone 3G and iPod touch with firmware 2.0.
