 Well, there definitely will be a dictionary. Steve Jobs demoed it 
publically at the last WWDC. It's not an application, though. It's a 
Dashboard widget. I think he mentioned what dictionary it was and a 
few more things like that, but I don't remember anymore. There's 
definitely non-NDAed information available. You can even see it in 
action. A streaming of it is somewhere on Apple's web site.
