Sad! My old electronic Korean-English (also with a Chinese card) just broke. It's been my trusty companion for 3 years (it's just black and white, but that's worked for me- I don't need frills, I need a lot of words, examples, hanja writing recognition, etc.). I guess I'll need to buy a new one ASAP but don't want to get ripped off. What are these things running these days? And where? It's a shame because I was just at Technomart yesterday getting a phone, and that's quite far from where I am in Bundang? Anywhere closer to me to get one at a reasonable price?

Thanks for your help!

From what I know, a lot of the electronic dictionaries use the same "dictionary" software. Meaning you look up the definition on one brand and it'll be the same on the other.

I recently bought a Sharp one for 225,000. Has an mp3 player and a lot of features that would be good for Korean people. However I wanted a recorder on mine and a thesaurus thinking it was already on there but nope! My friend has one that is maybe 10,000 won more and his has both features Sad
