This is just a browser app for cloud content -- much faster than trying to use dictionary.com on the default bb browser. After clearing out "recent" and turning off internet connection, all I get is "Server could not be reached! Please check radio or try at a later time..." To clarify...perhaps some of us are downloading an "internet only" dictionary.com app and perhaps there is the 10 meg program vs? Is this correct? If so, I downloaded from this link... http://dictionary.reference.com/blackberry/download on my bb and received the browser only vs. Are there then 2 versions that can be downloaded? .... and why? I wish there was a way to just download this full app to the computer and install this on the bb for those of us who can't easily do OTA. I can't really consider this freeware because I can't back up this software if I need to reinstall; in fact, I can't reinstall this. Perhaps cloudware is a better term for OTA only software that is free to install once per download. I'll try those other "actual" off-line truly "free" apps. Thanks Alex and Bob for listing them. …and it doesn’t work off-line. This is just a browser app for cloud content — much faster than trying to use dictionary.com on the default bb browser.
