Customer Reviews

Now has AA batteries instead of hard-to-get CR-series

2008-07-24
I purchased this tool after reading all of the other favorable reviews, but did so IN SPITE OF the fact that it had expensive and difficult-to-get (especially in Latin America) hearing aid batteries.

The unit just came today - and to my VERY pleasant surprise, it now uses AAA batteries! Changes like this show that the manufacturer is listening.

Good job, Franklin!

This is a great product! It's a good and quick reference for those moments when you need the words to express yourself. The only downfalls are that it doesn't work well with compound words or tenses other the present, but it's a great tool for a beginner like me.

This is an imaginatively, very well made product. Goes well beyond
expectations. I supplement the translator with an Advanced English
Dictionary/Thesauras and the Columbia Encyclopedia. Get an awful lot
more than I expected for the outlay. RW

Not bad for the price.

I found this device to be very quick and thorough. I have found it to be invaluable in my undergraduate studies in the Spanish language.

AMAZING PRODUCT!!!!

I bought this little investment to take to mexico to help our translators if they had gotten stuck. This helped them out SOO much. they said they wouldnt have been able to translate the bigger words and the construction words without it. it was an invaluable tool for them. im going to have the translators write a testimonial about their experience with it but im glad we were able to have this handy. GREAT TRANSLATOR!!!

Great dictionary / Muy buen diccionario

2008-03-10
Para las personas que hablan español y conocen algo o estan en proceso de aprender el idioma ingles, pienso que este diccionario es una muy buena herramienta para lograr ese objetivo. Segun el manual este diccionario contiene unas 5 millones de traducciones, hasta ahora no he encontrado una palabra que este diccionario no contenga su traducción.

El diccionario no será perfecto pero me atrevo a recomendarlo a aquellas personas que necesitan hacer consultas a menudo de palabras. Para estudiantes de ingles es una gran ayuda.

I returned this item

2008-02-22
Screen was very hard to read. I returned this item. Be careful when ordering it. Returns to this company, which isn't Amazon, are only allowed on defective items. I returned the item a month ago and still haven't received a refund.

Great Purchase, Easy to use.

For someone who doesn't know spanish and needs to look up words fast, this is good purchase.
