The RD-P1 is the newest dictionary from Sharp Korea features over 118 different dictionaries and supports a new pen based writing recognition system, and Mp3 playback. The dictionary’s 5.4″ LCD screen and handy QWERTY keyboard are all packed into its 1.8cm thin design. The suggested retail price is W210,000 ($215 USD), but will anyone pay it?
The new RD-P1 electronic dictionary is a little confusing, it departs form the companies standard fair of dictionary’s featuring color displays, hard drives, and video playback. One might assume Sharp was targeting the low end of the market, but the price is over double the cost of their low end dictionaries. The ’sharp’ price might be due to the 118 dictionaries they have included, that many dictionaries would cost a lot for royalties. It appears that Sharp Korea is targeting consumers way to obsessed with definitions or dictionary authors.
