Pick up a local SIM card
SIM card with CMCC 100 RMB
Turned on GPRS (I guess ChinaTelecom has 3g?)
try installing SCIM (otherwise no data chinese entry)
Here is what I did when there:
One way is to used a huge 1 page txt list for a dictionary and then grep from the command line to find the translations...
Download City information via wikitravel.org
http://wikitravel.org/en/Beijing
Download large data at wifi hot spots - wifi place (Starbucks etc)
Do not use Boingo - rip off
dictionaries

phrases (online)

3000 common characters (very nice list you can download so you can view offline)
