Disappointing and expensive.
I bought this device for crosswords and because it has a larger screen in the lid. However, it is a most disappointing, and expensive, substitute for the much better Sharp PW-E300/500 (regrettably now out of production).
1. The ‘concise’ dictionary/thesaurus/encyclopaedia are far too small to be useful. Even I have a larger vocabulary than they. Modern memories can and should cope with much more comprehensive versions.
2. Whilst the Sharp device does not have an encyclopaedia, this one is inadequate.
3. The screen layout is cluttered and the background graphics are distracting and unnecessary. A clear screen would be better.
4. The screen is also dark and difficult to read in some light conditions. A backlight is needed.
5. The ‘page scroll’ function is too complicated, requiring both hands (shift + down arrow on opposite sides of the device) – it needs a single button
6. A score of 2 / 5 is the most I can give it.
