Amazon.com Product Description
Dedicated to providing a full-bodied entertainment experience on the go, the portable M520B DVD/CD/MP3 player includes a 10.2-inch TFT LCD display that makes your movies look great, along with both built-in speakers and a headphone jack for private listening--all in an attractive black housing. The all-in-one entertainment bundle is a great way to entertain kids in the backseat, keep yourself amused on long plane trips, or bide time in a hotel room on rainy days. Among the unit's favorite features are a selectable aspect ratio (4:3 and 16:9), which lets you view movies in traditional format or full widescreen depending on your taste; multi-angle playback, which shows select movie scenes from several angles (requires compatible DVD); and a multilingual dialogue option for listening (or reading subtitles) in a variety of different languages. More traditional functions include slow motion, multi-speed forward and reverse scan, track programming, and zoom.

Of course, DVDs are just one of the playback options, as the M520B also supports CD, CD-R/RW, HDCD, VCD, SVCD, DVD Audio, and Kodak Picture CD formats, along with MP3 and WMA files stored on a recordable CD. The variety of compatible formats is vastly superior to most portable DVD players, especially the DVD Audio and HDCD formats, both of which offer far better fidelity than audio CDs. To ensure the best possible audio performance, the M520B includes a built-in Dolby Digital decoder for DVD soundtracks, along with a Dolby/DTS SPDIF digital output that connects directly to 5.1-channel A/V receivers. By employing the latter option, users can enjoy full-bodied surround sound through their home theater system while watching films on the DVD player.

Additional features include an S-video and composite video output for connecting the DVD player to a larger TV, a built-in PAL/NTSC tuner for traditional cable reception, a full-function remote control, and a car adapter that lets you power the device through your vehicle's cigarette lighter plug. The M520P measures 10.83 by 1.46 by 7.68 inches (W x H x D) and is backed by a one-year warranty.

Elementry.......2002-02-13

I have never written a product review but I felt very compelled to do so after buying and using this product that had received such high marks. This product does not even contain the most basic words that a middle school student would come across in their daliy work and I a very certain that this would be of no use to a college student. I read the review of this product that the university english professor had posted highly endorsing this product. This will be of absolutely no use to any college unless they are looking up words like "house, car, people, ect." This machine will not give definitions for many of the basic words that it can spell such as "compell." There are some good spell checks but this is not one of them.

more words!.......2001-12-05

most of the words in here I already know... Franklin should produce a dictionary of more obscure, academic words. but it's good for spelling, I guess....

Thiis thinge is rally, rally grate........2001-04-30

GREAT!.......2000-05-10

This is a great product. It works vary well. I bought it to use for looking up words in books i'm reading (my favorite hobby, besides chess). A great way to increase your vocabulary. (and your spelling)

Excellent for Students!.......1999-12-04

This handheld Franklin MWD 400 electronic dictionary is an excellent buy because it is efficient and accurate, as well as small and easy to carry around, and relatively inexpensive. It has a spellchecker that is comparable with higer priced, more elaborate electronic dictionaries; it offers several feasible options. It offers viable definitions for thousands of the most commonly used words. The purpose of the dictionary is just that: to be a dictionary - it is NOT just a spellchecker [which often is not helpful in other models] nor is it cluttered with a scheduler or other distracting major features: It focuses on words, their spelling, and definitions. This is a must for any serious student, whether college or high school. I am now requiring it for my college English students.
