4 out of 5 stars Great value, great features.   September 18, 2008
Nicholas Kimmons (Fort Worth, TX)
This little translator is just what I was looking for for my trip to Italy. It's compact, light, and full of features. Having an alarm clock is expected, but still nice. The ability to play mp3s is a nice bonus as well. The translation was solid, and it was very easy to use even for older people who had never seen a device like this. The only reason I don't give it a full five stars is because it didn't have a full word to word translation. Some abstract words and concepts were present only within a sentence. Overall, though, excellent bargain.

Overall is nice compact translator however the screen is very hard to read. They should have made the font display much larger.


5 out of 5 stars Best Speaking Translator I've seen   June 13, 2008

I recently purchased & returned other speaking translators (voice phrase books / talking dictionaries) from other companies (other brands). This Franklin model is by far the best: clear, natural, speaking voice, vs. a computer-generated "robot voice", with others. My only criticism is that the speaking voice is too fast. At least it can be repeated as often as necessary.
