Works Great, DOESN'T Last a Long Time!
I bought this unit about a year and a half ago, and soon couldn't understand how I ever lived without it. The dictionary is quite complete -- I haven't had to go to my OED but maybe once or twice since getting it. The definitions tend to be on the terse side, but not ridiculously so.

The thesaurus is just okay, but I've been spoiled by my vintage 1957 Roget's, which is SO much better than what they slap that name on these days.

So why the negative review? After a year and a half of being my trusty writing desk sidekick it just quit. Wouldn't turn on, wouldn't do anything. New battery and jabbing the reset doohickey do nothing. Naturally the warranty is only for a year. If this was a $15 item I'd grumble and get another one, but at $80 I shudder to think what my cost per lookup came out to!

Now I can't live without one of these little gadgets, but I'll be trying a different brand. Hope I can find one that's as good as this and actually lasts awhile!

If it were waterproof, It would get a five!
I have owned a few electronic dictionaries over the yrs. Simply put, I like this one the best..Does the job!

would be better if it can pronounce
Basically the dictionary function is good, but as a electronic product, I would really hope that it will have an optional function that can pronounce the word I am interested.

Excellent Product!
This product is great! I highly reccomendit to everyone in school, specially for homeworks for papers, etc, it is of great help. very convinient size, pocket or in your school bag, it is much better than walking around with a huge dictionary, eh?

Everything I ever wanted in a dictionary
Has derivations, example sentences, is easy to use and overall PERFECT. I bought one for myself and two for my parents. The only thing that sucks is I had to wait almost a YEAR to order it because for some reason this sucker is hard to come by.
