BDicty (pronounced "bee-dikti") is a specialized application for
reference content.
Powered with rich set of
language, professional, scientific and even entertainment dictionary lexicons,
BDicty will quickly become one of the most valuable and used applications in
your handheld.
Pay attention BDicty itself is
only a dictionary reader program, not an actual reference dictionary. It does
not come with any particular data files (lexcions), but there is a wide
selection of such lexicons - both free and commercial - at our website
http://www.beiks.com.
BDicty is released for standalone product for two reasons:
first, to facilitate program updates; users of lexicons or dictionary bundles
can only download and install the program update whenever one becomes available.
And second, BDicty normally comes in two versions - free and commercial. Both of
them allow opening any of the available dictionary lexicons, but the commercial
version (whenever available) offers some extra features.

To install, first download the file (BDicty.ipk)
and save it somewhere on your computer; then start Qtopia Desktop and click the
Documents icon on the bar on the left. Drag the downloaded file
and drop it in the Qtopia Desktop folder (the Z must be in its craddle and
connected!). When the file is copied to the handheld, tap the document icon at
the upper right corner of the Z to open the documents folder and you will see
the package there. For questions and suggestions please email
