 great product for bad spellers on the go!!!! April 16, 2007

I've had one of these for over 14 years now, when they first started coming out. My brother has the original one I got freshman year in high school, and I have one I got junior year. This item is still very much the same as it was 14 years ago, just a little sleaker and smaller. Very easy to use, turn on, type the word, and search. It still has thesaurus and games, and as reviews below mention, occasionally still brings up entertaining words if you are as bad of phonetic speller as I am. This item is excellent to save you from digging through pages of a dictionary in search of just a spelling, and not the definition. A must if you can't even get the first 3 letters square like I do looking up words. Most of these models will also play hangman with you, amongst a few other games to try and work with your spelling skills. The spelling ace my brother still has actually contained many definitions. These little machines are worth their weight in gold for highschoolers and college folks writing paper, even with spell check on the computer.

I really like this product. It most of the time saves me from fumbling through the unabridged print version. A nice tool for crossword solvers.

Excellent functionality. I'm very satisfied with the next-to-bed-lamp and on-the-bus service it provides. Am considering adding an English to French translator to my repertoire too.

I leave it on my nightstand so I can look up words without pulling out the giant dictionary everytime. So useful for a quick definition. Exactly what I wanted.
I love to write. Don't trust my spelling. MWD-460 will help January 26, 2009

Delv was fast !! I have an older Franklin Dictionary it's great,, now I need one for my second office . The MWD-460 filled the void .. and it's much smaller .
