This unit is larger than the previous unit. Not as easy to hold but easier to see. It uses regular batteries and is less expensive to maintain. Hope it lasts as long as the last one.

4.0 out of 5 stars I cheat. I use this, a dictionary and Google--but I solve the puzzle., February 4, 2007

This works beautifully. I have not had it long enough to know how well the battery holds up but am not too worried about that. The only reason I did not give this five stars is because I had a previous edition which was in stainless steel with a soft leather case, and smaller----and thus more handy. Further I am not "digitally gifted" so I fumble about a bit in trying to open it. But it surely does a great job once I get it open. I do not regret my purchase---not one bit.

My Dad is a crossword-aholic. I bought this for him as a Christmas gift and he has said he likes it, but I KNOW he likes it because it is sitting on his end table on top of whatever crossword puzzle he is doing. Plus I always see him using it. He's 72 and he has no trouble. I feel this is a good sign this must be user friendly. I've also heard him say "This really works!" Anyway...I'm glad I found something he likes. He's not exactly easy to buy for.
