The best IMO is the eReader. eReader is free, but you'll have to purchase the dictionary. They have several to choose from. What's great about this is that you can directly search words from ebooks just by tapping on the words. Of course, you can search the dictionary directly as well.

I have Ultralingua and its good not great. I'd say it has about 70% of the definitions I try to look up. In its current state its a bit sluggish and I wish it had predictive text. I also wish it presented pronunciations phonetically like dictionary.com (opposed to Apple's Dictionary)
