It would be usefull to access an offline version of wikipedia (since there are people who do not want to pay for mobile internet) on the OpenMoko Platform. Here is a little tweak I did with the Stylus Demo by Mickey. Please submit more feature ideas!

Features

  • show articles depending on location (GPS)
  • list with recently viewed articles
  • search articles "as you type"
  • it will have no pictures - not enough room on any media
  • tex forumlas could be generated with a local LaTeX install
  • all wikipedia versions except the english one will fit on a 4GB SDCard (tested with the second largest wikipedia (german))
  • all articles in one big file and one index file for title searches OR a lot of small gzipped files which get unzipped on the fly
  • new wikipedia versions can be obtained from here [1]
