A real lifesaver
I use this mostly for Portuguese to English and am finding it very useful. You can say the voice is a bit strange in both languages but you get used to it and it really does put the accents clearly where you need them to be. In fact, when I try and speak just like the machine everyone understands me without a problem - which I guess is the true test of its usefulness.

Portuguese sound and pronunciation, terrible.
1) The sound from this machine is not very audible (ie. it is pretty soft, even with the volume on high). 2) The pronunciation of Portuguese is a joke. For example one of the most commonly used verbs in Portuguese "fazer", is butchered by the verbal announcer. "Fazer" is just one of many mispronounced words. The machine's bad pronunciation has nothing to do...

1) The sound from this machine is not very audible (ie. it is pretty soft, even with the volume on high).
2) The pronunciation of Portuguese is a joke. For example one of the most commonly used verbs in Portuguese "fazer", is butchered by the verbal announcer. "Fazer" is just one of many mispronounced words. The machine's bad pronunciation has nothing to do with it being programmed in Continental Portuguese, Brazilian Portuguese or regional accents, it is just plain wrong in many cases. Etaco, you need to do a complete makeover on this one... 3) I don't want to drop this machine, it appears fragile. 4) A lot of money for a little bit of product.
