You probably know that there'd be a great deal of work involved in putting the unabridged OED onto a suitable flash card: converting the numerous abbreviations into the appropriate-in-context terms; how to deal with original Old- and Middle-English spellings and quotations, let alone the different pronunciations and spellings that have been used through the centuries ... It'd end up probably costing as much as a good PC does these days. The Concise Oxford Dictionary is, basically, more user friendly!
----- Original Message ----- From: Brian Lingard To: 'Braillenote List' Sent: Thursday, November 16, 2006 5:16 AM Subject: RE: [Braillenote] Oxford Dictionary truely wonderous: Ottawa Canada Dear Mary Ellen and list: Thanks for the rave review of the Concise Oxford Dictionary for the Mpower family. Looks like I should phone Humanware Canada in the morning and order the U. S. dictionary. Wonder if they could put the entire O.E.D. on a CF or SD card? That dictionary is the ultimate dictionary of the English language! Would love to get Black's Legal dictionary or Stedman's Medical dictionary on a card too!
