4.0 out of 5 stars Good, but could be better...
This works great for translating words, but I've had some trouble with complete sentences. With my knowledge of the language, you would need to know what order to put your words to make anyone understand you. Therefore, it's good for basic refesher or just looking up words, but not for real communication. It does give tenses, which is helpful. Overall, it was worth it,...

3.0 out of 5 stars German is a little lacking
I bought this card primarily for German, but was disappointed to find out that the German words are not listed with their gender. All German words have a gender (masculine, feminine and neuter) and you need to know the gender in order to use the proper article. In German the article is pretty important for effective communication. Other than that, the quantity of words...

All German words have a gender (masculine, feminine and neuter) and you need to know the gender in order to use the proper article. In German the article is pretty important for effective communication. Other than that, the quantity of words and useful phrases is pretty good. I also like the functionality and navigability of the software.

5.0 out of 5 stars Premium Provider, Great Data, December 24, 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: PalmOne PalmPak Language Translator Card (m125, m130, i705 & m500 series) (Office Product)
This card is great! I don't know if you noticed, but the provider of the content on the card is Franklin Electronic Publishers, the leader in handheld translating software! I haven't seen any other products that can translate words not only from English to other languages and back, but between those other languages. This is a must buy for teachers, students, and travelers.

2.0 out of 5 stars Better products available on software, October 17, 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: PalmOne PalmPak Language Translator Card (m125, m130, i705 & m500 series) (Office Product)
The content is not bad for this add-on card, but there are a lot of better alternatives out there. My favorite is Qvadis Lexica, for example, which has available translation options between English and Spanish, French, German, Italian and Portuguese. The Qvadis user interface is superior, and you can add your own words and edit definitions on the go. It is software, not an SD card, but a better buy, in my opinion. This is the kind of program Palm should have included in this PalmPak card.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great product!, March 13, 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: PalmOne PalmPak Language Translator Card (m125, m130, i705 & m500 series) (Office Product)
This is a great card. I've used it a number of times on business trips to Europe. It's so much easier than carrying a different dictionary for each country (i.e., one for Spain, one for France, etc.). Highly recommended!
