typing games : Franklin LM6000b Speaking Language Master Reviews
| 132 of 136 people found the following review helpful  unwieldy. database lacks., By A Customer This review is from: Franklin LM6000b Speaking Language Master (Office Product) Pros:Acceptable dictionary service. (Quick, short definitions to a large number of everyday words) Useful pronunciation service. Cons: SLOW word correction (if you type in a word/spelling not in the dictionary, the wait is excruciating while it comes up with alternatives. To be fair, this search can be canceled promptly if you typed in a wrong word by mistake) Not quite portable. Dictionary could have been more comprehensive, used AAA batteries. Top heavy (literally), unwieldy in the hand due to 4 AAs. Would have preferred more comprehensive definitions and lesser games. More comprehensive meaning better definitions and more etymologies. I would not agree with the term "Language Master" because of the perceived deficiencies in the number of words and length of definitions. 31 of 32 people found the following review helpful  Nice product,..terrible customer service., By a troubled Franklin customer (Peachtree City, GA USA) - See all my reviews This review is from: Franklin LM6000b Speaking Language Master (Office Product) I have this particular product and like it very much. However, over the years I have purchased from Franklin many times and there is one thing about Franklin that is consistent and which I can't stand and that is their approach to customer service. Believe me, you don't want to have to deal with such terrible customer service. As each year goes by, I'm more and more amazed how a company with such poor customer service stays in business. Regardless of the merits of the product, it would be impossible for me to recommend dealing with Franklin. 36 of 38 people found the following review helpful  Best Tool for Learning English, By Scott "Scott" (North Dakota) - See all my reviews This review is from: Franklin LM6000b Speaking Language Master (Office Product) Excellent learning tool for students and people who want to improve their English or build up their vocabulary. The pronunciation is clear and I have been using it for more than 10 years. At work, I use the thesaurus to fine tune my documents and when I travel, I take it along as the word games get me hooked during the long flights. It is one of the best investments I have ever made. I also share it with my son who is in secondary school. Sometimes we argue over the pronunciation of certain words and the talking dictionary acts as arbitrator. Although the price has not gone down after it was launched, it is still worth every cent. |
