For several years since 2003 Wikipedia for TomeRaider was the only product on any handheld device that allowed you to browse the unabridged Wikipedia offline. I keep these pages for historical reference only.

 You will also need a license for TomeRaider (shareware).

To browse the Wikipedia on your handheld you will need a large memory card.

(1) For files larger than 2 Gb: make sure your PC can handle this. If you use WIN2000 or XP with file system NTFS (default) you are OK. If in doubt, check your file system in File Explorer, by right clicking the drive icon and selecting Properties.

(2) Main differences between the version for Pocket PC/Windows and the version for Palm are: TomeRaider supports a wider set of html tags for Windows and Pocket PC than for the Palm OS. TR3 Palm misses html table support (tables will be shown but will look a bit unorganized) and also has no unicode support (no foreign language transcriptions and advanced math symbols).
