What makes Quickpedia worth the download over simply navigating to Wikipedia from Safari is the easy-to-read interface and the search history. The app remembers all of your searches, lists them on the home screen, and-this is key-saves every article you've read to your iPhone or iPod touch for future reference offline. (The app does not save images, however.)"</em></p><p><img src="http://images.thoughtsmedia.com/resizer/thumbs/size/600/at/auto/1263512470.usr105634.jpg" /></p><p>Pretty good app for what it does, and it also has a "nearby" tab that uses your location to give you information on nearby landmarks and cities. It isn't accurate enough to give you directions I use other things for that anyway. And it is free so it is pain free if you don't like it. Well other than losing some of your time.&nbsp;</p>
