ECTACO Partner 900 PRO Galaxy Multi 31 language Voice translator and Language Teacher
Works great!
We ordered this for our trip to Rome. It seemed to be the only option that provides offline use. It was operational in seconds without ever going online. The moment you turn it on and set your language it works. I'm glad I bought it. The program could use some tweaks when it comes to typing in a quick phrase. But overall it is useful and easy to use. It is essentially a tablet with their language programs and dictionaries installed.

I bought this item as a gift for my wife. I was surprised in just a few weeks my wife is speaking English and understand it as well. She also use it as a two way translator when speaking with some of her friends and she learns at the same time. Great product to have if you need to learn and communicate. My wife loves it.

ECTACO Partner LUX 3 English <-> Spanish Free Speech Electronic Translator
The best I was able to find, although a bit expensive, this product has all the bells and whistles necessary for everyday use as a translator. I live in Spain and use this product on a daily basis.
K. Whibley

ECTACO 500AL Multilingual Translator
This does take about 5-7 minutes to load another language, but it has been a very helpful classroom resource in my English as a Second Language class. I can let a student use it to translate Tagalog for part of the class and let another student use it to translate in Spanish for the next part. Multiple languages are already pre-loaded.
I like giving this to students instead of Google Translate, so they can use their own language skills and just look up one word or phrase at a time.

The device works perfectly!! It helps me a lot through my studies! I would recommend it to all students who take lots of notes!

ECTACO SpeechGuard TLX
I got it a few days ago. This smartphone is impressive. I added a personal phone number for Skype and now its like having three cell phones in one. This thing should win product of the year easily just like magic jack did a few years ago.
Its a must if you like visiting other countries or just simply if you want to dump your cell phone bill.

Hi Leslie, I just received a new Dictionary. In the beginning, my wife thought the Dictionary is too expensive for us. Then she realized, it's worth all the money. We both speak English and we live in Canada for over twenty years, still, there is a lot to learn. Thank you very much for your help.

I love this ereader! Especially the user controlled AA battery system and the many ebook formats it has. But, it was the battery system that got me to purchase this ereader!!!

I read my first book on my new JB-L - an Adobe PDF ebook I borrowed from the library. I have to tell you I am tickled pink with this ereader. I love its small size, light weight, landscape mode, all the formats it supports (handles PDF beautifully), the fact that it does NOT have a backlight, the fact that it takes regular batteries. . . and on and on and on. I''m thrilled with my purchase! =)

Love this reader. My parents bought this as a gift for me. Even in low light, I can read the fonts and my eyes aren''t strained. Even though it doesn''t read audiobooks, I''m quite satisfied with it.

ECTACO jetBook mini

Well, I've been using my JetBook Mini now for about 2 months. And I've grown to love it even more that I did at first. I find that I can carry it around in my coat pocket just fine. I can pull it out and read wherever I am?which is normally at the grocery store waiting for my wife to do her thing. I love it.

I had to replace the batteries in the thing last week. After using it an average of 3 hours a day for the last month or so, the original AAA batteries gave up the ghost. I have grown to love the auto-shutoff feature that turns it off whenever I sit it down. I never have to remember to do it manually. This time I stuck in some rechargeable AAA cells, so when it dies this time, I'll simply recharge them.

My wife got a Nook for Christmas. It is a beautiful device. She uses it while sitting in her recliner. It certainly has some features I wish I had on my Jetbook Mini. Probably if there were a few things I do wish I had it would be the ability to display graphics. There are a few eBooks that I own that have embedded graphics in them. I wish the Mini could handle them, even if they were in monochrome, that would be fine with me. Also I find I am truly missing the "search by keyboard" function that is found on most all other eBook readers and always on all pocketpcs/handheld pc devices.

The conversion process isn't perfect either. Some of the characters when converting to .txt format do not come out as they should. This normally has to do with the original eBook using italics, or parenthesis, or some unusual print structure. Still, it has never impeded my reading the story to the end?and it is the exception rather than the rule.

So after 2 months do I still think the Jetbook Mini beats every other handheld pc or pocketpcs device for use as an eBook reader? The answer is YES, it certainly does. And I'll go one step further. I've seen people squinting and going blind reading things on the cell phones, using them as eBook readers. No thank you?I'll keep the mini! Read more...

You have taken such good care of this order and assisting me in making the right purchase. It is quite surprising to me, the level of customer service I have received :) I will be telling my friends here that ECTACO is THE translator to buy... you can bet that when I pull mine out and use it they will all be asking where I bought it!! My situation is a bit unusual... I am retiring to Boquete` Panama and there are 1,000 other expats doing the same thing as I here, so they too have a need for clear communications in their new homes :)
You have been a great help to me! Thank you and I hope your day is fantastic :)

If you have parents that read, I'd highly recommend it.
My Dad has been struggling with Macular Degeneration, so he reads landscape style on the largest font size. His small local library only has about 50 large print books. So he's really enjoying being able to read again.

Ectaco jetBook and jetBook Lite
When I became interested in buying an ebook reader, the first thing I discovered was that there are a mountain of choices out there, and which one was best for me was not immediately clear. Ectaco jetBook, Kindle, SONY and most recently the Apple iPad, among others, all offer excellent digital readers with varying feature sets, costing from around $150 to over $1000. With that kind of price range, there just had to be some significant differences between them. I finally settled on the jetBook, and here?s why; what I wanted to do, primarily, was read books. And, if possible, listen to my digital music library while doing so.

Ectaco's SpeechGuard MD-5 and PD-5
I am writing you to express our great happiness with the translation products made by Ectaco. To put it quite simply, they are magnificent! Your MD-5 health/fire product is so easy to operate and so incredibly clear to understand that it shaves tremendous time off of emergency runs involving Spanish speaking individuals in need of care. Besides letting EMS easily walk through their evaluation procedures, the fire related translations can save lives by letting fire crews be able to communicate well enough to aid in their locating people inside.

I just bought a Jetbook and I'm very happy with it. The screen is a bit small but it's great to read PDFs, especially with the zoom function. I love my jetBook. - no eye strain at all. And I have already used the landscape feature twice. (who would have guessed). Thanks for making such a great eReader.

ECTACO Partner ER850
I purchased the ER850 for my trip to Ukraine, and wanted to let you know how happy I was with this product. It worked so good I did not need to hire a translator during my visit I was able to communicate with my lady friend very easily, it?s very user friendly what a great product.

Ectaco Jetbook
In 5 minutes I was more impressed with the jetBook than the sony ebook reader. I could not take Sony's "flash" on page turns. The buttons were hard to press and too tiny. E-publishing is the new frontier! Get the jetBook into as many electronics stores as you can. It beats Sony hands-down.

All is working correctly and I'm satisfied with your products. Looking forward to placing some new order by the Ectaco company, thank you again!

Hello, guys! Thanks for your JetBook. I bought it 2 weeks ago and constantly reading on my daily ride from NJ to Manhattan and while waiting kids from their tennis class. I probably read more books with JetBook in these 2 weeks than in the past 2 years. Thanks to Ann Smith for teaching me where to get free content. Good lack with your new projects.
PS: I tried morning downloads from news sites. Works perfect.

Just a quick note to let you know how helpful the ER 800 was on my recent trip. I travelled to the Ukraine twice and all over Russia. Even though I'm a very experienced traveler I have no idea what I would have done without it, especially in Siberia. Thanks again for all your efforts to provide me with a working model in a very short time.
I've recommended that my company purchase units for all employees going to foreign countries. Hopefully you'll be hearing from Twin Disc, Inc.

Gear: Ectaco iTRAVL NTL-9C
Golf travelers planning a trip somewhere more exotic than the British Isles - say Spain or China - might want to consider packing the NTL-9C. It's effectively a personal, go-everywhere translator - minus the per diem and tips. The base NTL-9C communicates in nine languages - it can be upgraded to 50 languages - and can translate 14,000 phrases.

Translation needed? Try the Ectaco iTRAVL TL-6
Whether one can imagine a situation in which it might be worth $600 depends on your love of gadgetry. The new Ectaco iTRAVL TL-6 is a "talking dictionary" - a thin hand-held computer with a speaker that can translate eight languages. Its most fun feature is the wand--you run it over any text and see the words repeated on the screen. Press "OK." ?Bien! The translation appears on-screen or via a robotic voice.

ECTACO Partner ER800
The product i ordered was everything i wanted in a dictionary for my trip to the Ukraine this fall. it is easy to see the screen and to use all areas of the Partner ER800 dictionary. it is fast and easy to translate from russian to english and quick to change from english to russian also. the text to text translator along with the text to speech feature works very nice for my needs and is fast enough to keep the conversation from becoming stagnant on a date. i also like the other features it has too. i have tried other E-translators and have had some troubles that sometimes can be embarrassing. this one will make me feel i can speak the language with a lady that speaks only russian, and give us the chance to be alone and still have communication without a human translator with us.

The ER800 is a wonderful tool. If you know little or no Russian, the PhraseBook is a great help in communicating basic information....The talking dictionary is very large too. It covers most any word you need. The talking feature means you can correctly pronounce a word, even if you can not read Russian text. Enjoy using the ER800 to enrich your communications with your beloved!

While most Finns in the big towns speak English, I found the phrasebook really helpful when travelling to some of the smaller ski resorts?and the dictionary was great for figuring out signs. Probably the most impressive was how easy it was to use?and all the extra features were handy too.

Many thanks for the fine products made by your company! Every new release lifts your product to higher and higher technical and aesthetic levels. My new partner ER800 seems so "alive" that it is almost possible to hold a conversation with it! It is certainly more than simply a high-tech gadget. First of all, it is my friend - a friend that is always present and available, so unlike the experience of our everyday lives. I have never studied English before and you have helped me to solve this problem in as short a time as possible. Many thanks to you, my real friends - so needed and appreciated!

ECTACO Partner X8
I am Tatyana Levina and purchased a Partner X8 about one year ago. I called your office in Chicago and spoke with Sergey Ulyenko. I am sorry but I probably miss-spelled his name. At any rate he was very pleasant, kind, helpful and patient with this elderly person. He made me feel very well taking care off and was very polite. He also helped fixed my Partner X8 especially when we had to speak Russian. So often we get mail of a derogatory nature that I wanted to send you a letter of appreciation.

AT A RESTAURANT The Ectaco's phrase book and dictionary for Food/Drinks are extensive?and easy to navigate, once you get the hang of the touch screen?but its speech-recognition function could get you into some trouble at the local pub: when we told the microphone in English, "I think I'm a little drunk," the German for "I'll have a gin and tonic" popped up. The Ectaco did pass our arugula test. AT A SHOP With tons of useful phrases pertaining to everything from shoes and souvenirs to electronics and jewelry, the Ectaco scored high in this category. At the toy store, you can even ask: "Do you have any dolls that walk and talk?" AT A HOTEL We loved the Complaints subcategory (one of seven)?with entries ranging from "It smells bad in my room" to "The sink is clogged," you'll know exactly how to whine when the situation demands it. Service requests are also extensive, including "Is there a socket in my room for my electric shaver?" and "Would you please be careful with these blouses?" IN AN EMERGENCY It's hard to imagine having the composure or ability to navigate with the Ectaco's touch-pen setup in a real emergency, but those with chronic medical conditions can plan ahead using the many phrases grouped under Health/Drugstore. OVERALL More than a quick translating fix, this device is built for language learning. The downside of toting such a sophisticated mini-computer-like device is the learning curve.

ECTACO Partner ER-X8
I just got back from a month long trip to Russia and took along the Ectaco X-8 translator. I speak a little bit of Russian but this device helped me get through the train station by myself and have in depth conversations with my fiancee and her family. It enabled me to have very personal conversations one on one. I made many new friends because of it. It is helping me learn Russian. I type in whole paragraphs and it converts it instantly. You just have to avoid slang. I highly recommend it, even though it is pricey at $400. Well worth it in my mind.

Aside from verbs, the EFR630T has a fairly complete vocabulary.

ECTACO French <-> English <-> Polish Language Teacher - EFP630T
I bought the EFP630T device as a gift for my French colleague. The device has a grammar section in French. There is also a section to help one prepare for the "Test of English as a Foreign Language" - questionably beneficial, but fun. It is obvious that this dictionary was designed to help francophones learn English. A great business gift idea :)

ECTACO English <-> Spanish Language Teacher - ES600T
Overall I found this very useful; the voice feature, while mechanical sounding, shows where to put stress on syllables and demonstrates the sounds produced from combining different vowels. Thanks to that I am speaking and understanding Spanish better. Also it has a huge dictionary, so the majority of the words that I look up are available. Also it has a slang option you can turn on or off if this is for your kids.

ECTACO English <-> German Language Teacher - EGm600T
I actually went to Germany and this little translator did the trick! It was great to be able to communicate with so many people with just the press of a button! It has so many features, including the actual sound of the words. If you're a traveler or even a student of German, this is something you HAVE to have!!!

Meg Patterson, Minnesota

ECTACO English <-> French Partner EF400T
I am in a French class in college and it was a struggle for me to keep up in class. I got this translator to help. It is small, fits on my books in class without blocking anything, and is one of the single most helpful dictionaries I have ever found. It "thinks ahead" when I am typing and presents complete words so it saves time.

Frankly speaking, it's simply an easy, quick, English-Spanish dictionary with several useful tools and features. I'm an attorney, and this ECTACO machine helps me be the well-rounded professional that I am.

ECTACO Travel SpeechGuard TL-2S English <-> Spanish
I highly recommend the device to those going abroad. I did a semester of school in Spain, and the SpeechGuard really helped me get through the adjustment period there.

Partner ER800 - English <-> Russian Talking Electronic Dictionary and Audio PhraseBook
I met my wife over the internet. Writing emails back and forth was easy enough, but when it came to the first visit to Russia, I brought along my ER800, and it helped to make our relationship happen, Thanx! :)
