Wikipedia offline on JB

wyrm · 02-06-2011, 08:18 AM

I've been searching for quite some time for an offline version of wikipedia that is compatible with my JB, but didn't find any...

Does anyone here know of such a thing?

Is there a Standalone version for PC?

I was under the impression that it is only available Online via the Net.

If there was a Standalone version I assume that the size would be extremely large. In the past I have had encyclopedias that have resided on several CD's.
If you want to include the pictures that reside in Wiki then it surely will be a large file.

There are several offline versions of wikipedia. Check them out here, here and here.

There is also a special WikiReader, a cute ereader-like device with an offline version of wikipedia on a sd card. You can find this device here

All of these versions fit on a single sd card. So, yes, it is possible. I just can't find a good epub/html/.... version of it.

Any help?
