Homework for my kids is a breeze now 
2007-03-12
My daughter outgrew her Quantum Pad so I got her a Palm Pilot TX and loaded it full of educational reference material as well as e-books to read at her level. I made sure to include this dictionary and thesaurus. Now it's very easy for her to figure otu the correct spelling of words when she's writing as well as look up definitions of her spelling words. This little program will definitely grow with her to use in Jr. High and HIgh School. The learning curve to used this was minimal to my 10 year old. The definitions are comprehensive enough for her to get what she needs. My 7 year old often borrows this dictionary for his homework too. I even find myself using it from time to time. It beats the time consuming flipping through pages of a book and takes up such little space.
Great little device. 2007-02-23
I bought this even though the reviews weren't all that good, namely that it was slow to respond. Although I find that it works superbly. I carry it with my Palm in the case and use it from time to time at work and home. It's much easier that trying to locate a hard copy of the dictionary. It is very easy to use and needs no instructions. Fantastic buy for the price.
Faulty product, unresponsive customer service 
2006-11-05
This is the only card that has ever failed to work on my Palm Tungsten C, so I know it's not a hardware problem with my PDA. The handheld device recognizes the card and FileZ shows that the programs and databases are present and available, but the program doesn't run -- the only response I get is "Loading from card. Please wait." But nothing happens. My repeated queries to tech support via its Web site have gone unanswered. Don't count on any help from the company if you also get a lemon.
Make sure your read this before you buy 
2006-09-05
Hello to all! If you are like me this you read these reviews in hope to learn about the down side as well as the up side of these products. I will make this short and sweet. I purchased this item at least two months ago and it's a very good piece of gear for those of use that can't spell or just flat out want to have an dictionary on hand 24/7. This item is user friendly and good to have. The bad side is this, ONE you can not safe the dictionary to your palm partly for copyright infringement which I can understand since I to own a company and like to be secure in my dealings. TWO you will have to exit your program in order to use this item which I was unaware of when I brought it. Three it dose have a spelling aid when looking for a word you don't know how to spell but its not like Microsoft word or anything you type the word and if you are off...way off you will have no assistance in finding it which to me defeats the purpose of the item. But other then those issues you will not have a problem with this item. All and all it's good but i would have given it a four or five star rating if I had been able to use it on my palm in conjunction with Microsoft word.
Disappointing 2006-05-11
This is not a dictionary you can download onto your memory card. It comes on its own memory card, which you have to insert into your pda to use. You have to carry this dictionary card around with you and when you want to look something up, take your card out of your pda and then insert this one. It's impractical. For me it was a waste of money.
Perfect PDA tool! 2007-12-27
I love Palm Merriam-Webster's Collegiate Dictionary and Franklin Thesaurus; it is the perfect tool to have for tech savey people like myself who do alot of typing, weither it be an email or typing a letter. Is easy to load on to most PDA's, easy use, and most importantly a big help! If you have a PDA, and an SD card slot; this is a must have!
Sweet Action 
2007-11-30
This thing is great! It comes in real handy when there's no internet connection. The only bad thing is that I also have the encyclopedia. The format doesn't allow you to copy and paste both books on a separate SD card, so you have to keep them both with you.
My Palm Dictionary do not work well. 2007-08-23
Of the Thesauros and Dictionary,the last do not work properly. Some times the software are not loaded and frequently block the entire device.
The unusable dictionary 
2007-06-13
This would really be a great dictionary if the company allowed it to be installed on one's own SD Card. Instead, one must remove your card and install the one that came with the product each time you want to use the dictionary.
Handmark's Oxford English Dictionary allows you to install without requiring its own dedicated card. However, once you reach high school age, this dictionary is worthless. There are few words more than 2 syllables long in it.
Too bad the much more advanced Merriam Webster Dictionary is so unuseable.
Easy to use but - 2007-04-11
Easy to use, but cannot reference the dictionary when in another program which limits its use. A very good dictionary & thesaurus otherwise.
