Hi Guillaume. Full disclosure first, since I wrote it. But an option for offline viewing for the iPhone/iPad/iPod is "Mapster" (http://itunes.apple.com/ca/app/mapster/id409304946?mt=8&uo=4). It couples topographic data (hillshading and contours) with OpenStreetMap data, and caches tiles rendered by our servers "semi-intelligently" (it checks for updates on cached tiles periodically, but otherwise keeps them on your device indefinitely if the space you allocate for caching is adequate.. otherwise, it removes tiles that haven't been used in awhile). All that's "behind the scenes" though, so the user doesn't have to worry about those details.
I wrote it for my own uses when I couldn't find anything appropriate for back-country hiking I like to do, far out of the range of cell towers. And surprise of surprises, it seems like I wasn't the only one looking for something like that, since it's done fairly well.
