Want to Buy: SlovoEd Chinese Dictionary (Oxford dict discontinued)

3 replies · 11,929 views · Started 27 March 2011

Hello,

I just installed the SlovoEd Eng-Chi-Eng Dictionary to my Nokia E90, and the Chinese voice pack. And I test it (Epocware allows 7 days full usability without registration). That's one great dictionary! So, as my luck is, when I try to buy it from Epocware, it turns out that Oxford (whose dict it is) has discontinued their contract with Epocware, and Epocware informed me that _possibly_ the dictionary might be available again late this year.

But I need it now (while I still have an interest in learning Mandarin).

Would anyone be interested in selling me their license (and registration code)?

Does the original license allow for resale?

Is the registration code tied to a particular phone (IMEI)?

Hi,
A good question, actually. I don't know, because I haven't bought anything from Epocware before. It's possible that when buying, one must supply IMEI.
Otherwise, I believe, when you uninstall an application, the license should become free for another installation.

I downloaded the Chinese-English Dictionary for MIDs from Getjar. It's a Java program that uses the free CEDICT Chinese-English dictionary to show Chinese characters and pinyin and it can translate both ways.

It's on the Getjar website somewhere but I can't remember the link.
