Love This Thing:
I absolutely love this little gadget. After 3 years of heavy use, it finally konked out, and I tried replacing with a similar Franklin model, but found its layout cumbersome and inconvenient. On the Sharp, however, I like that the 3 different dictionaries are easily accesible, the rest of the options can be accessed by other nearby buttons, and the backlight is a really nice feature--so there's no need to flip through a lot of menus. It also has two different font-sizes. The main things I like... more info
AWESOME PRODUCT!:
There's nothing much to say except that it's an awesome product and very helpful when needed. :)
This is a quick and convenient look-up tool:
It's worth every penny of the after rebate price! It is very straightforward to use and the keyboard is large enough to ensure that you only hit one key most of the time. I like dictionaries and own several in book form. Oxford has long been my favorite. This portable little gadget makes a nice addition to my arsenal and is great for quick look-ups. I've been playing with the Geographic Dictionary and it contains more information than I expected.
Very confusing:
Insert a word and it comes up with many selections to choose from. If you don't know the word... how can you select one?
