Sorry for the off post but don't know where else to list such an item.  If
anyone knows a site where these type of things are listed let me know.   

For Sale: Franklin Language Master Talking Dictionary Model LM6000SE 

This item is brand new and when I say brand new I mean it is still in the
wrapper and has never been opened.  I got it a few years ago and it has been
sitting in the closet ever since.  I'm asking $250.00 shipped.  Independent
Living Aids has it for $495.00.  I got the following description from their
site.  If you have any questions email me directly.

Verbally speaks each letter as it is entered, as well as correctly
pronouncing the word that has been spelled and its definition. An incredible
tool for learning, the Language Master pronounces over 83,000 words clearly
and correctly. It gives over 300,000 definitions, and distinguishes between
words that, while spelled alike, have different meanings for different
pronunciations. It's also a Thesaurus, with over 500,000 synonyms grouped
according to the various senses of the entry words. It provides phonetic
spelling correction of every word in the dictionary, and has a crossword
function that lets you input a question mark for missing letters and get a
list of words that fit the pattern. It contains a separate list of over
3,300 words commonly found on SAT tests that can be incorporated into
vocabulary building games, which makes it perfect for college bound visually
impaired students. Finally, it has several built-in word games, which
provide hours of fun while developing vocabulary skills. It comes with a
built-in speaker with volume control, and has an earphone jack so you can
use a headset for privacy. In addition to the talking function, it has a
four-line LCD display screen. Batteries are included.  
Unit Price: $495.00
