West's U.S. Constitution for iPhone

To the ever-growing list of mobile electronic legal resources, you can now add the United States Constitution. West Publishing has released the digital version of a Pocket Constition for iPhone / iPod Touch. The application, which costs 99 cents, offers the full text, a table of contents and audio of the text.

Interesting side note from West’s blog: I didn’t know that West created the original Pocket Constitution at the request of Chief Justice Warren Burger in the 1980s.

So, if you find yourself frequently engaged in constitutional arguments about rights to free speech or to bear arms or complex discussions regarding separation of church and state or the split of power between the branches of government, this app’s for you.
