I was disappointed:
Franklin Merriam-Webster ((Speaking)) Spanish-English Dictionary (BES-1850). I really did not test it's functionality. From that stand point it might be fabulous but the fact that I could not read the display screen was sufficient for me to return the device. The letters are blue, the backround is light green. Even after adjusting the resolution I had problems reading the small letters. If you do not have perfect vision I would not recommend this unit.
Spanish-English Dictionary:
Franklin Merriam-Webster ((Speaking)) Spanish-English Dictionary (BES-1850) It is excellent product for students and travel. I use for English class and homework.
Dim display is kiss of death:
I read reviews before I purchased. Some said the display was very dim. I took the risk. Wish I had not. It's really, really dim. So dim, it cannot be used outdoors. Recommend you look elsewhere
Great product but::
This is a great product and works well. The only thing I found is that I am over 60 and have difficulty reading the print.
The basic pocket-size book. 192 lined pages. Imported from Italy. 3½" x 5½"
Many are the sketches and notes, ideas and emotions that have been jotted down and harboured in this trustworthy pocket-size travel companion before being turned into famous pictures or the pages of beloved books.
Each Moleskine has a rigid, oilcloth bound 'moleskine' cover, and the acid free paper pages are thread bound.
They also have an elastic closure and an expandable inner note holder made of cardboard and oilcloth and a removable card with the moleskine history.
