I purchased this because it was called Britannica concise encylopedia and assumed the references would be more of a english /european nature but I was mislead it has more references towards US history their sportsman,filmstars etc and was very dissapointed,The ER8000 is made for the american market so beware
best one out there August 2, 2008 Marg Asan 10 out of 10 found this review helpful
My partner spent a lot of time looking at the spec of this and other similar products before buying this one for me a year or so ago. I am an avid crossword solver and have found this to be the best route to cheating yet. I am also a primary teacher, and allow the children to use it when they are writing. They find it easy to use and regard it as a special treat! A colleague of mine became interested in buying one when I solved a dispute about the meaning of a word within seconds. She went out and bought the Sharp equivalent, which has proved to be not nearly as efficient and she regrets the decision.
ER 8000 December 30, 2007 Mr. P. A. Trett (UK) 53 out of 55 found this review helpful
I found this to be an excellent bit of kit. Being able to jump from one function to another is a very useful feature and the content seems very thorough. The learn function, allowing you to store words, has proved to be very useful as has the solve function which has been great for helping with all sorts of word puzzles. The product is a convenient size and feels and handles very well. The screen is a good size but my only qualm is I would like the screen to have better visibility. You can vary the contrast and the size of the font, which is useful, but a light (of sorts) would be a real bonus. Nevertheless overall I have been very impressed.
