Stacked on my living room floor, my reference books come to my chin and easily weigh 100 pounds.
Best dictionary in the app store. Clean easy to use interface. Fast results. Word of the day on tons of other features. What I love best is I can bookmark words and get help with crossword puzzles. This is a great app and the price is great too.
