Hi,

Don't know how well known this is but, there are two Esperanto apps for sale in the iPhone applications store.

1. A very disappointing but cheap set of electronic flash cards that unfortunately amount to just 70 words or so.

2. A good value for money (in my opinion) Englsh to Esperanto dictionary.

Anyone know of any others?

I wouldn't know of any more (heck, I didn't even know of those two) but maybe thats a good excuse for getting the iPhone 3.0 SDK when it comes out. okulumo.gif (I would like to

How much AUD is the Eng-EO dictionary? Is it offline? I remember getting an English - Japanese dictionary for the iPhone which was excellent but required a Wi-Fi or 3G connection in order to function malgajo.gif (Luckily I didn't pay for it as it was free but if I had I wouldn't of been too impressed)

Download Stanza (for free) and it'll turn your iphone into an ebook reader. Then you can download several Esperanto texts from Project Gutenberg.

Hi Chris - Yeah the Esperanto dictionary from Sofweb is on the Australian iTunes site - retails for AUD $2.49

You don't need an internet connection to do basic word lookup, only if you wish to expand on the search results in the esperanto wikipedia. Overall I think its not bad!

Nice, cheers for that dewco73 (or Dean if you don't mind me using it rideto.gif), I might have to go down to Woolies to get a $10 iTunes card so I can buy it. And the fact that you don't need an internet connection for basic word lookup is heaps good (sorry for the SA colloquialism, it's the only thing that felt adequately described it)!

And gwbell, I presume the disappointing flash cards is iStudy: Esperanto? I think they have a series of flash cards out there for many other languages, not just Esperanto, which may explain the cheap price. From just a look-see I wouldn't recommend them to anyone else, I think there is much better content that you could be using to learn Esperanto on-the-go for free in fact.
