It has been attributed many times in pop media of a all knowing device that is both all knowing and also to be the source of all information ever created. Examples are the Hitchhikers guide to the galaxy in the book with the same name and also the PokeDex in the game Pokemon. Wikipedia is the first step in this direction providing the amount of information that can be available anywhere at limitless amounts. The only problem is the none portable nsture of this application. Outside of the Smartphone industry, which provides a very small version of Wikipedia and you ned access to either a wi-fi or 3g connection, there is no way to access this resource outside the confines of humanity. With the WikiDex, yes I know its a terrible name, there will be no confines, except of battery life.
=>Tentatively I will put linux on the Ipod replacing its already existing GUI and=
=>From there I will put on a program that is able to capture the text of wikipedia and convert it to files.
I will upload the files onto the ipod, find a flashy interface, and viola the WikiDex
