Handmark Oxford American Dictionary and Thesaurus SD/MMC Card Reviews
The only other dictionary out there that works on my HP Pocket PC (IPAQ) is Merriam-Webster's Collegiate Dictionary and Franklin Thesaurus. But it only works if you use the SD Card that comes with the package. This is a very handy little dictionary. With my pocket pc near by I find reading a book less of a chore when there's a quick way to look up words I'm uncertain of. I had trouble explaining the problem in an e-mail and we went around and around a bit.
But it does the average job you expect from any good paperback dictionary. But they were prompt in answering each followup question and very considerate. There was an SD CARD that came with the package but I had to remove my own SD card and insert this one before I could use the dictionary. Most importantly, they got it working. It's not meant to be the complete Oxford English Dictionary with every word in it. And the company will not let you download it to your own SD Card.
However, I had a lot of trouble getting the dictionary installed on my own SD Card. This completely takes all the convenience out of using a PDA while reading a book or magazine. So stick with Handmark's Oxford. It took me a number of exchanges over a few days with Handmark's Support technicians to get it to work on my own SD. Believe me, I tried.
I grant that my vocabulary is larger than average, but I seem to know every word in this dictionary. Words that I do not know are not in it. The thesaurus gives only a few alternatives and it gives you no idea of what word would be the better choice, so it is not much use. If you have graduated from college, I don't think it would be much use.
