iDictionary Lite 1.0 provides you with a sophisticated Mac OS X application which lets you put a dictionary and/or thesaurus onto your iPod. iDictionary Lite leverages the Oxford dictionary available with OS X 10.4 along with some very smart filtering and optimization techniques to create a dictionary or thesaurus that will fit on an iPod. The dictionary or thesaurus is displayed on your iPod using the iPod's built in "Notes" feature.

The "Notes" feature, which is needed to view a dictionary or thesaurus on your iPod, is available on 3rd generation or newer iPods (sold since April, 2003.). iDictionary Lite restricts the dictionaries created to letters A-D. If you want to be able to access a full dictionary or thesaurus you must purchase a license for the standard version of iDictionary.

Requirements:

• OS X 10.4 or higher
• 3rd generation or higher iPod
