Hi - If a word is heard and inputted, but somewhat misspelled, does the E550 recognize it anyhow and provide further help ? THANK YOU !!

When I saw your question I put the word health incorrectly, what it did was bring all the words that started with the letter he... until it reached the word health. It is like going through a real page in a dictionary. So it gives you an ordered list of words starting with he-health, but it does not correct the misspelled word like Microsoft word. I hope this helps.Nora

Be cautious with this purchase, I returned twice and the third one is siting here dead/useless.

Hi, The E550 will give you a list of similar words to choose from with their definitions. I don't think you will regret buying this great electronic. My husband and I use it every day in some way shape or form.

Yes, If it can, it offers suggestions (such as: "Did you mean ..."). I hope this helps.David

In dictionary mode, my PM-E550 gives many choices as you type in the first few letters of any word. If you don't get the beginning right, there's little chance of it finding your word. For example if you type in "flem" instead of phle, it will not recognize where you are going!

Thanks, silly mistake really, I had did a bit of dyslexic typing. All is well now and the keyboard has paired with my blackberry.I will add here that I did upgrade to OS 4.2.1 which did not come with my BB even though i just bought it last week. After that and downloading Marco's file directly into my bb, everything was a breeze.Thanks again, D.

Been using mine for a few weeks now and the only glitch was the backspace not responding. Lifted the key off, gently with a knife blade, and jiggled the little button and, presto, it worked! Put the key back on and so far, so good. Don't have any idea why it would just stop working if it had previously. Sorry, hope someone can help. Will be watching the reponses.

Mine was perfectly fine, i didn't recall hearing about many problems in the Forums. I could suggest that you're probably typing a letter or number wrong, ask someone else to type in the code for you cause they could probably read it better. Or you could try using all caps and/or spaces. Type it exactly how you see it and let me know if it works. Just in case it does not work, call in Akai costumer support and they can assist you with your problem a lot better then I can.

Mine was in good in every way except when I switched to keyboard it didn't seem to recognize it was same device and wanted logins that I had not previously entered but guessing that wasn't the keyboard. Mine exceeded quality and expectations. Maybe you got a rare dud.

The franklin speller only corrects the word the you type into the speller. It will give you also a quick meaning, as well.

Ernie...........this computer sent it before I was finished. The one I had before, it did not unscramble words. You have to be able to pronounce the wordphonetically and the Speller will bring the sound alike word on the screen. Is it worth it? Franklin is a good brand as far as I know. I would buy and try itfor the small fee it cost at this time and work to be able to use it comfortably. Take care~~~

Spell check has nothing to do with the keyboard, it works the same as it would if you were using the on screen keyboard.

It happens a bit. The keyboard is sensitive. But I get the same issue with cell phone keyboards as well.

Hi Thomas,Sorry you're having a problem. It doesn't sound normal though since all of my function keys produce the correct corresponding symbol. You might consider contacting the vendor through Amazon to see if they can trouble shoot or exchange. Best of luck. Susan

I have only had the keyboard a few months and the letters are fine, HOWEVER, the letters on the zxcvb row are not on the correct keys (the letter x is on the z key, for example). Could be confusing if one is not a touch-typist. Other than that the design and feel is good.

There is a feature that allows you to type in a word the way it sounds and the Dictionary will correct it. For example: You can type in "oshun" & it will be corrected to : "ocean". It is explained in the instructions. I cant do it by e-mail. I hope this helps.
