Hi
I �ve got one which is my most precious treasure. It �s a Casio EW-S100 which includes 3 dictionaries: the Oxford Dictionary English-Spanish / Spanish-English, the Oxford Advanced Learner �s Dictionary (monolingual) and the New Oxford Thesaurus of English. It �s very easy to use and includes lots of examples, idioms, synonyms, ... (it also includes a calculator but I think that �s the least important). There �s another electronic dictionary which includes as well a Spanish monolingual dictionary. I bought mine about four years ago and I know there is an up-to-date new one. Believe me, if my dictionary broke it right now, I would be buying another one (same one!) tomorrow morning!
Hope this information helps you.

Hi Pachy I have a question, could it be the same if I had a smart phone with internet connection or it has to be an electronic dictionary. Is it faster? Thanks just want to know what would be more convenient.

Hi, Urpi
I �m afraid I don`t know anything about the smart phone. The electronic dictionary I have is a handheld dictionary, not very big or heavy and very fast. I �ve surfed the internet and I �ve found something it can help you to have an idea of what it is like (the website is in Spanish).
