Editorial Review of Wizcom Quicktionary II Pen- Spanish Voice Portable Scanner-translator
The Quicktionary II enables users to scan a single word or full line of printed text and translate or define single words, see and hear the scanned word(s) read aloud. Based on WizCom's proprietary optical head, sophisticated OCR and ASIC systems, the product is both fast and accurate. Most Quicktionary II models come complete with integrated Text-to-Speech technology. Users can hear the scanned word or line of text read aloud through a built-in speaker or earphone. Quicktionary II is expandable and upgradeable. Over 30 dictionaries and functional applications are available for download from the Memory Extension Kit (MEK) CD Rom.

Review Summary: Pen is a great time saver!
Review: When reading magazines or books in spanish, this pen saves time of having to look up word after word in the dictionary. It usually scans correctly after one or two tries, however sometimes, you have to get it just right, especially on smaller text. I think it is totally worth the price, and has helped my Spanish studies tremendously.

Review Summary: A useful device for translating reading material
Review: I bought the Quicktionary device to help me study Spanish. I have already been using the Franklin electronic pocket dictionary and wanted to complement it. If I had to chose between the two, I would keep the Franklin. Although the Franklin is somewhat slower and requires typing the words, it has more features such as conjugating, games, etc., it is cheaper and smaller and can be carried in the pocket. The Quicktionary is quite functional after you get used to the technique of scanning. Occasionally you may need to scan more than once to get the right word. Its weaknesses are that it is slow to boot up and to process the scanned words. It also cannot help when the word is split across two lines. Its advantage is that it can scan a whole expression or a whole line. In summary, it is a good complement to an electronic dictionary but cannot replace it. You should take this opinion with one caveat: I have not read the manuals of either device and just have been using them intuitively. There may be other featuers with which I am not familiar.
