I am fascinated by that device. I love little gadgets. I bet the fun factor of that would have me studying more as well... Good stuff! I'll take a look at it at Bic next time I get over there! As I'm becoming a student again I could use some extra study gear as well! Hey J!

It does offer you the option of writing your own word lists in e.g. Excel and then copying them onto the portable device. It can store a maximum of 20 lists of 100 words each. And each entry can be a full sentence, it does not have to be a single word. I am using it now as a tool to get me nearer to the goal of passing JLPT2. By the way, the price you pay at e.g. Bic Camera is lower than 7000 (forgot the excact price I paid, somewhere between 5 and 6 thousand).

I'll definately pick up a set when I touch down. I agree with you, writing the cards yourself is much better for short + long term memory.
