It was bound to happen. That venerable tome that is frequently offered as a gift to 1L’s everywhere is now making its iPad debut! West’s Legal Current blog announced the introduction of Black’s Law Dictionary for iPad yesterday (link here).
Other than a bigger screen view and book-like imaging, it does not appear to offer much beyond the iPhone / iPod Touch version introduced about a year ago and discussed in the Studio (link here). But, if you are a lawyer on an iPad and are looking to expand your uses of the device, you may be interested in this $49.95 application.
Interestingly, the print version is already up to the Ninth Edition, while the iPad version lags behind at the Eighth Edition. The sacrifices we make for technology.

Now I have to have an IPad!
I know, me too. But more for the Pinball HD app, than the Black’s Law Dictionary app. 😉
Cool…but it wouldn’t be very West-like if it was the most current edition! Commendable all the same, though.
Thanks for the great info. I'm going to give iPad and this Black's law dictionary app to my brother as a gift on his birthday!
