I keep waiting for an iPhone app, especially an ebook reading app, that would provide the 1913 Webster's Unabridged (public domain). Had that on the Palm and it was great for learning vintage word definitions!
You could download from Gutenberg, couldnt you? There is also http://machaut.uchicago.edu/websters where you can use a web browser to access definitions.
