Buy Sharp Electronics PW-E550 Electronic Dictionary

This was such an awesome electronic dictionary. But it randomly stopped working after about a year and a half. Similar to other reviews where this has happened, the screen just randomly went blank. After fiddling with the battery, the screen would come on asking me if I wanted to initialize, then it would go blank again if I touched it wrong. I think it's some kind of issue with the battery compartment, who knows. Considering that the exact same thing has happened to other reviewers, I'm guessing this is a fairly common occurrence for anyone who has used this product for over a year. It's a well designed dictionary, but it's just not built to last. Get more detail about Sharp Electronics PW-E550 Electronic Dictionary.
