FloridaLisa Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 I'm considering getting this for ds1's birthday. I know this was discussed long ago, but do you have a favorite electronic dictionary? And, while we're at it, best/least expensive place to purchase one? Thanks! Lisa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kareni Posted June 28, 2009 Share Posted June 28, 2009 (edited) Bumping this up for you. (After all, how often does one find one's name in the subject line?) I'm pretty sure that Jean in Wisc has a preference. It's the Franklin electronic dictionary as I recall. Hopefully, she'll see this.

Beth in Central TX Posted June 28, 2009 Share Posted June 28, 2009 I really like my Franklin SCD-1870A. I believe it's the model that Jean in Wisc recommended, and I really, really like it! It's very useful for read alouds. I thought I paid about $100 for it, but it's much more expensive on Amazon.com now. Here's a link: http://www.amazon.com/Franklin-SCD-1870-Speaking-Collegiate-Dictionary/dp/B0000A8VNU/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1246223215&sr=8-1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beth in Central TX Posted June 28, 2009 Share Posted June 28, 2009 Wow! I went back and found my Amazon order from May 2007. I only paid $81.29 for my dictionary, and I got free shipping. Maybe it was featured on special sale that day... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The $81ish price tag sounds very manageable. Thanks for the help, Lisa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regards, Kareni Hey--I just did a search on my name and found y'all've been talkin' about me again. :D It looks like you do just fine without me, though. LOL! :)Jean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
