This review is from: Ectaco Ectaco Partner C-4GM English-German Professional Talking Electronic Dictionary & Ebook (Electronics)

It came in an average delivery time of 7 days. The parcel looked a bit "chewed up", but the content had no damage.
The display and the voice of the unit is terrible lousy. If you are a beginner, you'll got problems working with it, of sure!
And at least you should have "cat-eyes" reading the display because of the bad contrast you cant't adjust as needed. The letter size is not big enough not even choosing the biggest size. You need a bunch of phantasy recognizing what the voice tries to say...
Never ever that product or brand. Watch every key type you push. It will not display the key if you type it in too fast or not tough enough.
