Not For Crossword Puzzles:
While the E550 is a good dictionary it's crossword puzzle functions leave a lot to be desired. Most crossword clues are two or three words which the E550 will allow (phrase search) but always the search comes up empty. In working with Sharp's customer service they admitted the E550 can only be used for the easiest of puzzles. I would agree The dictionary lookups were quite good. However, there were some strange quirks no only in definitions but displaying similar words. To me the E550 is outdated... more info
Useful:
I am in Chiropractic school and was hoping that it had some more medical health terms. It has alot of content but there are a few times that I was looking for something that was not there. It is very useful though.
Sharp E550 Electronic Dictionary:
The product does what it claims. The only thing I don't like is the screen. The screen isn't bright enough to see in the dark. In the set-up, you can change the screen contrast, but does not help in gloomy conditions. Otherwise, E550 is agreat product.
Great portable-dictionary:
I love this little Sharp electronic dictionary. I read many papers and find the convenience and power of this small device simply amazing. It always accompany's me while on the computer and I am in a constant state of learning new words. The "History" feature lets me "remember" what I forgot. Get this device since it is GREAT!!
