Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-01-21 Summary: One year going strong ... I bought this unit one year ago and it has performed perfectly and wonderfully. I use it almost daily. I like the letter holder attachment you can put on top to stand your envelopes up vertically. Great features too that I don't have time to list. I've seen other scales at the office supply stores that are about double in price that are not as good as this one. Buy it. ...more

Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-01-21 Summary: Well worth it! ... Got the first one for my wife. After using it myself, got another one for myself. Bought one more to give as a gift for my Bishop. A friend bought one after he saw one in use. I use it mostly for the concordance. Just type in a few key words, press enter, and locate that scripture that you can quote, but for some reason you can't locate. Well worth the price. ...more
[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-08-25 Summary: easy to use ... I had the less expensive ones and this one is much easier to use with larger keys and easier to read directions. It is perfect for when you cannot remember where a verse is in the Bible, but you remember part or all of it. Just a few words opens up all the verses that are close or match your entry. I find it invaluable and more helpful than the less than completely useful concordances that come with most Bibles. ...more
[3] Rating: 4 Date: 2008-06-03 Summary: pleased with product ... My husband had the older style without the cover which was slightly larger. I thought he would like this one better because of the cover, but although he likes it fine and uses it, he still says he prefers the old style better. Maybe he just needs to get used to the slight difference in styles. Otherwise, it is a fine product and works well. ...more

[2] Rating: 4 Date: 2008-08-14 Summary: Nice But..... ... Item was received in good time and works great but, they forgot to include the "stylus" that goes with it. I sent an email but never received a response or the stylus. Nevertheless it was worth it and works fine with the tip of a pen and I have plenty of those. Still, stylus would have been nice too. ...more
[3] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-08-13 Summary: Grrrreat ... It took me a while to get the hang of it but I zipped right along once that happened. It does just what I bought it for keeps me up to date on my schedule and phone numbers. I needed something that was smaller than my 8 1/2" X 11" appointment book. I kept leaving it in my vehicle or at home when I needed it at the office. This way I can set an appointment quite easily and not try to remember what is in my book off the top of my head when it is not where I am. I used to own a much heavier more complicated pda and hence ...more
