"On Sale, $10.00, it's a fun and informative add-on."
Version: Word Menu 2.2
Pros
More similar words and ideas than from a Thesaurus. Often one-word 'leads to another,' like what happens when surfing the web. Can be fun, like browsing an encyclopedia for words.
I have version 2.4, btw, so it's been upgraded.Cons
Some words (like "nuance,' just not there and some words not defined. It would be good if able to add words like we do with a Spell Checker

"I like it!"
Version: Word Menu 2.2
Pros
I like it because I like it.
Cons
I don't know now!
-
"unique product"
Version: Word Menu 2.2
Summary
Don't be fooled into thinking of this as another dictionary. It's more of a "word tool" that you use to find just the right word, or even browe for enjoyment.

"too expensive for this type of application"
Version: Word Menu 2.2
Summary
This app should be priced in the $20 to $25 range. I love language and word play and would use it occassionally; but I would not pay more than $20 for it.
