NHC’s magic-Talker’s Color Personal multi-lingual Assistant (really) may be marketed here in Japan as an educational aid for folk wanting to study English or Korean but it offers a helluva lot more than the electronic dictionaries we’re used to back home.
Aside from seven dictionaries, various study tests, an FM radio, a mic, various games, an e-book reader, both WMA and MP3 playback and direct encoding, it also happily plays DivX, XviD and MPEG-4 movies.
The internal memory is only 256MB but there is an SD card slot. Moreover, it has both a keyboard and a touch screen, does 4.5 hours per charge, weighs 173g and costs ¥44,800. Is there anything more they could have packed in there?
Yoshi’s take: This has a lot going for it but it’s really just an expensive toy, isn’t it?
