New versions of KTdict, my Chinese-English and Chinese-German dictionaries for the iPhone / iPod touch are online. The version numbers of KTdict C-E (a free English-Chinese dictionary), KTdict+ C-E (an English-Chinese dictionary with integrated flash-card trainer) and KTdict C-D (a German-Chinese dictionary with integrated flashcard-trainer) are now all increased to 1.3.

Following improvements have been implemented:

• Performance of the search algorithm has been optimized. Especially very large result lists are now handled considerably faster.
• The user interface is more polished, especially the flash-card trainer.
• It is now possible to edit the flash-card currently displayed and and to search for it in the dictionary.
• A history function for searches as well as results has been added.
• KTdict has been successfully tested on iPhone OS 2.2.1 and iPhone OS 3.0.

The updates are free for all existing owners of KTdict C-E, KTdict+ C-E or KTdict C-D. I hope you enjoy the additional features and increased speed.
