I find the Franklin MWD 1490 electronic Reference Set to be quite helpful. I have only found a couple of words out of a dozen or so that it could not define so far. Overall a good value for the money.

Like it, but wish it had a back light for I read a lot with a reading light in the dark, so it makes it tough to read the screen in poor light. Has good amount of words, but not special terms and not as wide range as say, Oxford dictionary. I was confused, because it listed Russian language as one of the languages in the package, but it is NOT there. So I am using it just as a reference, not translator. Has a few cute word games, that might help building up your vocabulary and quick thinking. Overall – good for the price, but needs better description of the features.
