    At least for Apple devices, there are a number of museum apps which could be helpful.  I believe they're put out by major museums.Also, there are several walking tours apps out there.  I'd imagine these would have many places of historical sites in towns throughout the world.

    I'm finding a few of them, but you have to pay.  Didn't think of museums.  I'm on some mailing lists, so I'll have to check their sites to see if they have any apps.

    National Archives documents as a “today in history” type of thing.  Freehttps://market.android.com/details?id=com.accella.nationalarchivesLooks like a good app except that it's over 18mg in size and can't be moved to your SD card.

    Similar thing happened with the Louvre app that I put on my Ipod Touch – it said it was too big.

    I tried 'rooting' the phone, which is supposed to give you access for moving apps that usually can't be moved, but failed.
