I teach special education in grades 3 and 4. The 4th graders love when they see me take these out (I bought 4). They are an excellent editing tool and have interesting word games on them that my students beg to use whenever they finish their work or while waiting their turn for assistance.

I just got mine a few hours ago, so I'll just hit the high points here.

1. Multifunctional
2. Cheap!
3. It took me one minute to get it going, (with one eye on the instructions and the other on the keyboard.) I got it right the first time.

CONS:
(There are some, but nothing of concern)
1. If you were four years old, (skinny fingers) you could use the keyboard like a typewriter. As an adult, if you line up all four of your fingers on both hands--squeeze them together--they are still too big to type on it.--but so what, you knew it was small before you bought it.
2. 500,000 words would have been a lot better for me instead of 110,000 words. (getting an update for a couple of bucks, from the company, with another 2 or 3 hundred thousand words- would have been nice. I didn't get it for the games or SAT's--I would rather have had the addition words.

But did I forget to mention it's CHEAP!...EASY TO USE!...WORTH IT!?

BYE!

I have used Franklin products for years. I love this one for it's large print and large keyboard for such a compact unit. I'm very happy with it.
