One of the largest smartphone application developers, Epocware, recently announced a deal with Samsung to pre-install Oxford Russian Dictionary on the handset maker’s i450, i550 and i560 smartphones. Under the agreement, buyers of the mentioned Symbian Symbian S60 based devices in Russia, will be able to use Epocware’s SlovoEd-powered dictionary, which contains more than 290,000 translations — including modern idioms, British, American English and regional Russian dialects, along with numerous illustrative examples. In addition, the Oxford Russian Dictionary includes “all common abbreviations and acronyms, and helpful advice on difficult points of grammar and pronunciation”…
There you have it. Samsung devices just got better. Now, it’s about time to bring them to Europe and elsewhere. But not only through Vodafone — there are other operators and even unlocked sales channels, ya’ know. 😉
