Item Description
Why Take Wikipedia Offline?
Because how can knowledge equal freedom
if people need a modem to get it?
People don't go to Wikipedia because they want to be on the Internet; they go there because they want to find answers and discover new questions. Of course, the best answers are never ends in themselves. They raise our curiosity and lead us down new avenues. They don't stop conversations but, rather, sustain them.
Similarly, each WikiReader experience is the beginning of something new. With more than three million interconnected articles in a completely offline, handheld package, the WikiReader is discovery, investigation, entertainment, and inspiration all rolled into one.
One screen. Three buttons. All the answers.
From history to current events, science to entertainment, Babylon to Babel fish—if it's in Wikipedia, it's in here.
Why WikiReader? Because it's...
