I found this Latin-English electronic dictionary on-line, and I was wondering if any of you have one of these?

http://www.ectaco.com/Latin-items/

It looks like it would be handy and portable, but it's expensive, and I'd like to hear from some users before plunking down the $$ to purchase it.

My son and I are just starting Unit 11 in Henle I, and we are also reading Lingua Latina, so we are starting to encounter a lot of new vocabulary. I think he would be more motivated to look up unfamiliar words if we had a hand-held device like this. Thoughts?

TIA,
Brenda

Well, info about a number of electronic dictionaries, some not expensive, turned up in a recent thread at the list. If you join the list just search the archives for the past five days or so and you'll find lots of good information. The site is latinteach.com. I believe it included a dictionary you can get for free w/ an i-phone, plus some online resources, etc.
