BigOven is a PC-based recipe database. There's a WinMo version that can sync with the desktop version. It'll let you read recipes that are already synced to your phone (and comes with 7 unappetizing samples). However, it doesn't have any search function (such as would let you search by type, ingredient, and time, although the desktop version has that) and won't find any recipes that you don't already have synced to your mobile database. The WinMo version has no online function at all. The mobile version is free, but the desktop version (without which the mobile version is utterly useless) costs 30 bucks.
