1) Dynamically link is OK, you don't need to provide source provided you didn't modify the library and it is self contained.
2) Probably, but you could always just host them for download on your site, or make your app download them automatically.

I wouldn't be surprised if nobody knew but..
I would like to know if a closed source application can use LGPL library.

1) I read several articles telling that as long as I dynamically link against the library, then it is allowed, but I can't statically link it. Is that right?
2) Also, can I provide the dlls with the software in a package? (like in an archive together) or does the user need to find it and download it her/himself?
