 great product for bad spellers on the go!!!! April 17, 2007
Concerned One (Clarinda, IA)
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.
fun to use! September 24, 2007

My 4th grader needed a spell checker for school, I chose this one for two reasons - 1) it shows samples of cursive for any word you enter, and 2) it was by far the cutest one I could find! The whole family has had a great time playing with it. And I think it has really helped my 4th grader to care more about spelling!

Amazing product. It's an easy to use, hand-held talking dictionary for kids. Your average [...]can figure out how to use it without any help. And older students will use it to look up words while they read books that are just a little above their reading level. It takes the frustration out of looking up words while reading, because it's fast and fun. Be sure to get the talking version!
