    Hi everyone,
    I'm a international student. My question is why N900 dont have a dictionary like iphone.
    i know that N900 have had a few dictionaries, but they are hard to install and my first language is Vietnamese, then the font on N900 can't read it.
    if anyone can make an dictionary app (English-English and English-Vienamese) going with example sentences.
    I'll appreciate it.

    yeah i have installed it, but that only works when you when N900 connect the internet. what i want is an app without connecting the internet and easily install.

    Hi there,
    I've read somewhere that you can have PalmOS in VM on the N900 and then use all the nice oxford dictionary libraries. :-)
    found it: Garnet VM ... see here http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=38846

    Garnet VM Beta 6 is what you probably need togo for http://www.access-company.com/cgi/gv..._form&w=OS2009

    Greetz,

    Are you sure about this? I have never noticed this. Each time I have used it it has worked perfectly. Maybe you are right and I was online each time but I would be very suprised if that were the case.
