5.0 out of 5 stars A must for crossword fans!
I am most satisfied with my purchase of the Franklin Crossword Dictionary. I use it every day (and not just for crosswords). A great buy!

2.0 out of 5 stars Not what we expected from the hype
Nice compact little device, but not much use for solving crosswords. Could be good for spelling bee practice or word definitions. Hangman game is enjoyable, but so far all words played start with a,b or c. Haven't had any success getting more random. For our purposes this is way overpriced. $9.99 might be fair.

1.0 out of 5 stars very disappointed, June 10, 2010

The price was high and I really expected it to be better than it is. I could lookup a word in my dictionary faster than I can on this computer.

The only advantage is it is small and easy to put in your purse while traveling.

I thought for the price it would provide more answer choices. When trying to find a matching clue for a word, I probably only succeed one in ten times. Rarely do I get an answer for a phrase. The games are fun. Basically not what I thought it would be.

i am somewhat disappointed in this product. there is too much emphasis on various games at the expense of its usefulness as a crossword puzzle aid. it should default to the puzzle solver.
