"The Best Product (Period)"
Version: BEIKS English-French Dictionary for Palm OS 6.0
Summary
I compared this product with the SlovoRD and Collins-Robert products and found this be better in a few different areas. Most importantly the lexicon seems more complete than the SlovoRD product. On several occassions while using the SR product, I found myself wondering why they hadn't listed a word. As it turned out, the Beiks product had it. I liked the SR layout BUT, let's face it, if I can't find my words, it's no good to me. I really just DON'T like the CR products. They don't even get off the ground for me. I don't like the layout, the way they present content and so on. Another benefit to the Beiks product is it's ability to switch from one dictionary to another with two taps. One to get to the menu and the other to pick the dictionary. To again compare this to SR... SR doesn't even have an English Dictionary. Nevermind a Thesaurus!! Another nice feature for memory sufferers like myself is that it retains a list of words that you've looked up. So that when you click on the drop-down menu you see all the words you tried. You won't get a sense of how complete these dictionaries are from the trialware like you will with the SR product. You'll just get an understanding of how it might work. That said, to me, it was work the "risk" I had hoped when looking at the number of words in the lexicon as it did have all the words I needed. Another point which is clearly VERY important. The Customer Service is free and timely... If I sent two emails in the morning, by afternoon I had two replies... try that with the others. I didn't get any reply at all from SR.

"Great dictionary"
Version: BEIKS English-French Dictionary for Palm OS 6.0
Summary
Have been using Bdiks BDicty for several months now. I find it much more convinient than a paper dictionary since I carry my Palm with me anyway. I also commend Bdiks customer service. They are very helpful and prompt.
