Last year when I started my own iPhone wiki reader the dump was 3.5 gigs compressed, and about 16gigs of uncompressed xml. A week ago when I pulled a new version to test out my New And Improved version, the dump was 5.2 gigs, and while I haven't the space or need to fully decompress it, it seems to clock in at 23.5 gigs. I can't speak for this device, but for my (ad-hoc only) app, I strip out most of the xml and build an index, which has a net effect of shrinking the compressed size dump by 5-15%, depending on the level of compression used, and so the cost to read out individual articles.

As a developer of one of those offline iphone apps, images get left out due to their sheer size. The 4gigs that are referred to only includes the text - the current dump is closer to 6, even when zipped up, with xml wrapping removed. LaTeX would be a good idea though, as it could be generated as needed... /me adds that to his tracker.
External links are easy though, the device makes it simple to send the user to safari to browse the real web. I have my own version because I have the iPod Touch, and often roam well outside the range of wireless networks.

Even better, try entering sitetruth.com - apparently they aren't too sure about themselves...

There is a hole in that - assuming that time travel is possible in any universe, it is possible in effectively all universes. After all, people from that one universe can go 'back' and form new pasts where time travel is clearly also possible. Additionally, if the act of traveling back in time creates a new past (branches an existing one), then most pasts should be the result of someone traveling back in time.

Following from that, suppose that only two people use distinct time machines in each and every universe where time travel is possible. It should be clear that the vast majority of universes now are the direct result of time travel. So unless one is incredibly unlucky to live in the handful of exceptions, time travel doesnt work like that.

My understanding is that the accepted idea oh how any such time travel could work is that once built, a hypothetical machine can only travel back as far as its own creation. Meaning that for each 'family' of created universes, none get time travel until the 'present' when the first one invents it.

Unless that is what the poster thought you would think, and so said 15, when it is really a Fortune 5 company!

That's what I would do...

One might argue that the iPod touch and iPhone are their play in the netbook game...
My girlfriend has an Acer Aspire One and I have an iPod Touch. She has a bigger screen and less battery, and while I can't type as quickly as she can, I can't type at all on the Acer keyboard...
