it's actually a pretty smart idea, if the price was lower i could see it getting some traction.

people love their smartphones, if you could maybe drop the radio and increase the flash memory, and have this able to sync with any windows mobile (or even blackberry) device i could definitely see this being popular.

sure netbooks are all the rage, personally i have yet to see one around and i live in a big city...

i know my idea sounds a lot like the palm folio, but at 7inches the palm was too big. especially using the now outdated palm os]]>Aug 26th 2008 11:32AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/08/26/udea-expert-300w-electronic-dictionary-boasts-fm-radio-and-mo/http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/26/udea-expert-300w-electronic-dictionary-boasts-fm-radio-and-mo/Aug 26th 2008 11:35AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/08/26/udea-expert-300w-electronic-dictionary-boasts-fm-radio-and-mo/http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/26/udea-expert-300w-electronic-dictionary-boasts-fm-radio-and-mo/

In Korean and some Asian countries these electronic dictionaries were what people bought years before there was wifi or SD cards or digital cameras.
It's the defacto gadget. people that want to learn English because of their job or about to immigrate to the USA buy one of these and translate everything they see into their native language. Most of these have extensive programs to train you.
you can look up and translate words forwards and backwards, flash card games, hand writing, voice, etc, etc, etc. think brain age x 100.
it also has to be portable. In HK, it's called a Golden Dictionary.
They just kept building more and more features so now it has everything including the kitchen sink. you can't put a laptop in your pocket.]]>Aug 27th 2008 3:27AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/08/26/udea-expert-300w-electronic-dictionary-boasts-fm-radio-and-mo/http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/26/udea-expert-300w-electronic-dictionary-boasts-fm-radio-and-mo/:)]]>Aug 26th 2008 12:05PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/08/26/udea-expert-300w-electronic-dictionary-boasts-fm-radio-and-mo/http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/26/udea-expert-300w-electronic-dictionary-boasts-fm-radio-and-mo/Aug 26th 2008 12:07PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/08/26/udea-expert-300w-electronic-dictionary-boasts-fm-radio-and-mo/http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/26/udea-expert-300w-electronic-dictionary-boasts-fm-radio-and-mo/Aug 26th 2008 12:20PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/08/26/udea-expert-300w-electronic-dictionary-boasts-fm-radio-and-mo/http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/26/udea-expert-300w-electronic-dictionary-boasts-fm-radio-and-mo/Aug 26th 2008 12:26PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/08/26/udea-expert-300w-electronic-dictionary-boasts-fm-radio-and-mo/http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/26/udea-expert-300w-electronic-dictionary-boasts-fm-radio-and-mo/300 Watts?

The one we bought even has handwriting recognition, although it's never worked very well.

Strangely enough I think the differentiating feature is the keyboard -- it's easy to type in words in Hangul, and there's no fumbling to get to the dictionary app. I use one because I'm always offline when I want to look something up.

The weakness I've found is poor Korean support -- they assume the user will not need much help with stemming, base forms, etc., since most of their users are Koreans.]]>Aug 26th 2008 7:27PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/08/26/udea-expert-300w-electronic-dictionary-boasts-fm-radio-and-mo/http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/26/udea-expert-300w-electronic-dictionary-boasts-fm-radio-and-mo/Aug 27th 2008 12:07AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/08/26/udea-expert-300w-electronic-dictionary-boasts-fm-radio-and-mo/http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/26/udea-expert-300w-electronic-dictionary-boasts-fm-radio-and-mo/Apr 10th 2010 8:10PM
