The iPad will have a built-in Oxford dictionary, but apps won't have access to it. Or at least, there isn't yet anything in the beta SDK which gives dictionary access. I suppose it could be a low-level context menu that all apps get for free, however.

In either case I assume they are system resources that all iPad applications can make use of. But if they are just for spell-checking, they won't be of much use for ebook reader applications.
