Check out the Encarta pocket dictionary - http://www.mslit.com/

Lots of free ebooks there, also see the eBooks topic on this website for other sites!

The Encarta one isn't bad. I use WordBook. Its not free, but its great! They also give you a free PC version when you buy tha PPC version.

Is there a free dictionary that can read PocketDict files? I would buy it, but Handango doesn't support Switch cards so I cant buy from them... The filetypes are .ndx and .dic I think

Here is the freeware PocketDict program. Works great on the Axim. There are two dictionaries available for it also.

Thanks for the link, but its not the "right" pocketdict. I need the one off handango that costs $3, it seems like the dictionary files I have are only useable on that one...

My suggestion is to download the freeware PocketDict and the two free English dictionaries that work with it. It is a great program I use all the time. By the way....IT'S FREE!!!! and works very well. After finding it I would not even consider paying for a dictionary.

Peace,

Rob Bond

wooch

Bondro is correct, @ first I said WTF??, but then I realized that I needed to dl the actual dictionary progam, and it was completeley free. This is a gret freeware dictionary, I have it installed alongside Wordbook. Thanks again Bond! :approve:

It also has MS Encarta dictionary for free download. Here is another one you may like. It is also freeware called WordNet.
