Very good for Everyday-Vocabulary Learner
For GMAT Prep, it is best to have a dictionary by your side. Yet, you find yourself too lazy to use hard version of Oxford, buy this product! Likewise, if you are too easy to be distracted by online dictionaries, buy this product!

Accept no substitute!
I bought two other brands before this one. They never had a word that I was looking for. If you need an excellent dictionary, this is it.

My wife loved it for the 2+ years it lasted...
I bought this here on Amazon in November 2007 for my wife for $80. My wife found it very easy to use, and she used it a lot since then. The display was only average, but it really worked fine until about a month ago. It stopped working completely, so we replaced the batteries, but when we powered it back on it had a series of lines running through the text, almost like an invisible bar-code, making it virtually unreadable. Still, in this age of planned obsolescence I guess 2 1/2 years isn't bad for an $80 gadget. So I'm actually buying her another one for her birthday. Along with a paperback pocket dictionary to use as a back up. :)

Pretty good
I feel like this was expensive for what it is. I wish it had a feature to saved recent words that have been looked up. Also a word game would have been a nice addition. So far it has been helpful in obtaining definitions and language origins. Depending on what you want in a pocket dictionary, I would recommend this one.

A very good product
This is the only electronic dictionary I've ever owned. The reviews seemed mostly positive so I decided to give it a try. I've had it for a few months and so far I really like it. Its relatively small so I can carry it with me to class just in case and always have near by when I'm reading. It explains most words I need. There were few ocassions when the word was not in there and I had to use another dictionary, which is not a problem to me like I thought it would be. THe fact that the screen does not light up is not a problem to me either. Over all I think its a very good product.
