 A Must-Have For Word Lovers August 27, 2008

I'll never forget now the day I received my electronic dictionary. It has changed my life. My mother bought me the Franklin SCD-1870 Merriam Webster's Collegiate Dictionary and I was in awe of this handheld device which looked like a little notepad but functioned like a computer. I spent that night and the next day looking up every single word I could think of, even the ones I was familiar with. I would link myself from word to word and started building up my word list and looking up new words and studying the SAT Word List. I loved pronouncing the difficult words and the batteries that came with the dictionary lasted for 18 months before the computer told be it was on low battery, and this was after using the device nearly every single day. I love saving words in the Word List, although sometimes the list is erased if you leave the device out in an extreme temperature, so be careful and make back-ups. The games serve their purpose and I don't have a problem reading the text. This works pretty quickly if you are typing in a word that the computer matches identically, but you have to wait a bit if you type in a word that is spelled incorrectly. The asterisk and question mark function helps out a lot though if you are not sure how a word is spelled. This is highly recommended and it is definitely one of those products that makes me wonder how I ever went without it. I need it by my side at all times now.
Wrong model sent to me on two occasions. August 16, 2007

I ordered model #SCG-1870 instead I received model #SCD-1870. So I finally requested and received a refund.

I am in a Master's Program and I am always writing. Having this quick reference is so handy. I had an older talking one and everyone always seemed to borrow it, and of course, I don't remember who had it last.
It also gave me a good reason to purchase this new dictionary. It is small, compact and a cover to cover the screen.. GREAT for students,
GREAT for anyone....especially if you are reading and need a quick reference.
 Not for people over forty January 4, 2007

While the device worked as advertised the small screen size makes playing word games difficult. The font size can be adjusted for dictonary uses but not for word games such as hangman and anagrams. This makes for difficult viewing in low light or without magnification.
