  Very handy

  by: dissolvedgirl on 23-Mar-2006 05:53:56 PM

  Pros: This app is very easy to use and very good as a quick reference when you're on the go.

  Cons: I just don't like how anything you cut/copy-paste on other programs gets transferred automatically to the search box of the app. Esp if you had just cut/copy a long sentence that you did not intend to search for in the dictionary.
