As long as you get the correct edition, yes. Note that PONS currently offers two versions of their Großwörterbuch dictionaries with dictionary CDs. One version comes with dictionary software by Paragon, which will only work on PCs and Macs and the other version comes with Mobipocket Reader. (The description of the Mobipocket edition usually mentions support for Symbian and Palm OS and the title ends in "Wörterbuch für PDA, Smartphone und PC.")
For example, the current editions of the French and English PONS Großwörterbuch dictionaries come with the Paragon software, which won't work on mobile devices, however, the Spanish dictionary CD doesn't appear to have been updated to the Paragon software.
I.e., if you're interested in French or English PONS Mobipocket dictionaries, you'll have to search for unused editions published around 2007-2010.
