Summary: Enlightenment via my Sharp
Comment: Love my Sharp PW-E550 Electronic Dictionary! I have been waiting and researching all manner of electronic dictionaries. After reading all the reviews possible and carefully deciding which options I really wanted I selected the Sharp PW-E550.
I am an avid reader with an above average vocabulary. I so hate running into a word I don't know (or am uncertain of) the meaing. The Sharp has made this situation a thing of the past. Not only is the Sharp fast, it is remarkably user friendly. I am so happy with it I will be buying another as a Christmas present for my granddaughter (also an avid reader). The only thing lacking is backlighting. Once Sharp updates this feature, I will replace my current model.
Five stars here!

Summary: Sharp Electronic Dictionary
Comment: I love it! It's compact, light, very readable, and provides excellent dictionary, thesaurus, and crossword puzzle solutions (which, of course, I rarely need since I'm so smart). I can stick it in my pocket, take it to the beach and am never at a loss to understand a word with which I'm unfamiliar.

Summary: So good I bought another one!
Comment: I owned one of these for four or five years and finally wore it out. After looking around at others on the market, I decided that it really is the top-of-the-line so I purchased another and have been just as happy with it. Mainly I use it for spelling and definitiions. One great feature is the 'wild card' option that allows me to put in an asterisk in the place of a missing letter or letters, and get all the possible results. Other spellers do not offer this.

Summary: very good, but not perfect
Comment: Love the convenience of not having to lug my big unabridged dictionary out. Doesn't have as many words, though.

Summary: Great!
Comment: This is the second electronic dictionary I have owned. My first one was another brand and broke down. After reading reviews on the electronic dictionaries, and seeing one about the Sharp, I bought and now am super happy that I got it because it is far more explicit than other brands.
