WikiPock, the Wikipedia app for smartphones

WikiPock allows using the online encyclopedia Wikipedia on Windows Mobile and BlackBerry smartphones, in off-line mode and in the form of an app rather than via a Web browser coupled with a mobile Internet connection. Indeed, the Frenchies of WikiPock have compressed the encyclopedia texts in 8 languages (English, French, German, Polish, Dutch, Italian, Portuguese and Spanish). As an example, the texts of the English version alone take up 4 GB of storage.
 

An encyclopedia, a dictionnary and quotations with WikiPock

WikiPock also provides Wikiquote and Wiktionary, 2 projects associated with Wikipedia, which represent a quotation database and a dictionnary respectively, still in the above 8 languages and for free, as a launching offer.

WikiPoke for Windows Mobile and BlackBerry: price and availability

WikiPock is available on the website dedicated to the app www.wikipock.com for 9.99 Euros VAT incl. for Windows Mobile and BlackBerry. Finally, WikiPock Plus Edition lets you download the encyclopedia updates during a year for 14.99 Euros VAT incl. Additional versions compatible with the iPhone and Android should be released soon.
