Hello,

I've reached the point in my Japanese learning career that I think a Japanese-English electronic dictionary might really come in handy. I've never bought one before, and the options - as well as the prices - are overwhelming. If anyone has any advice at all on which models to look at, I would love them forever.

I'm looking for one;

- not too horribly expensive, ideally under $300, over $400 is out of the question
- with an English display would be nice, most of the ones I've seen seem to be aimed at Japanese people trying to learn English, and I have no use for a device if I can't even navigate the main menu
- One that deals with kanji

I've come across this little pink thing, it looks promising:

Any advice? Any at all? Help me! sweatdrop

I have to say it should help out. Is there any cheaper price that is not expensive to buy those.
