Maybe this is how the Koreans want their e-dictionaries, but the Digitalcube i-station UDIC is the third e-dictionary I’ve seen that resembles a laptop (the other two being the Hannuri Nurian X10 and the iRiver D5). The i-station UDIC comes with fifty dictionaries (are they all in English? Korean? Or are these dictionaries for fifty different languages?) and a search tool so you can look up words in record time. Other features include a 4.3-inch swiveling LCD-touch screen, a QWERTY keyboard, text-to-speech features with native speakers pronouncing the words, a translation service, movie captioning, and a 60GB hard drive. All those features made the UDIC sound very useful, but I don’t understand why anyone would spend on a separate device for all their e-dictionary needs when you can just load an e-dictionary software or application on your PC/laptop. Oh well, it’s their money, not mine!
