Rikai

Browse the Japanese internet with a popup-dictionary at your fingertips! Simply drag your finger from either the "word" or "kanji" button on the bottom of the screen, and as you pass over any Japanese text you will instantaneously get a definition of the word starting at wherever you point.

Please be gentle, and e-mail suggestions!. This is the first, initial version! Many improvements are planned, but I'd like to get this out there and gather some feedback. It took a lot of hackery to get this working.

I've made it so the browser won't load images as I see that as a common usage--that will be an option in the future.

Neat tip (completely optional):
Rikai registers itself as a browser for .jp domain websites. If you have a default browser already setup, you can go to Settings -> Applications, click on "Internet" (I had to look in the running apps to find it), and select 'Clear Defaults'. It's possible then to set Rikai as default for .jp sites, while still having another browser as the default for the rest of the internet.
