I'm not sure about all of them. I'm not familiar with all of these expressions, because I'm used to use computer stuff in english. In the case of "offline dictionary", ist literal translation would be "diccionario sin conexión", but this sounds really strange to me. Id just use "diccionario", leaving the specification of the connection status to online dictionary ("diccionario en línea")...

Hi, there. I'm brand new here--less than one hour old. :)
I've been reading Diego's translation above and it's a great job! I'd like to make a couple of comments.

1) Diego's excellent work included both formal and informal possibilities (in Spanish we can use usted or tú, much like you and thou were used in English in former times). I would use the formal approach, which is customary for this kind of instructions.

2) A little typo: "Ahora que los has ("lo ha" if you want to be formal) probado" should be "lo has".

3) A grammar comment: "el botón de calificación que se encuentra más abajo que te ("lo" if formal) llevará a la página de Android Market". Although lo is correct, in this case it is permitted to use le to make it gender-neutral. In a way, it's similar to the use of they,them,their or he/she, him/her, his/her in English.
