Sharp’s Brain PW-AC10 e-dictionary attempts to fool you with its phoney looks

We\’ve seen Sharp e-dictionaries aplenty here, but apart from a couple of models, that same ol\’ clamshell form factor\’s absolute to send you to snoozefest ultimately. To keep the Japanese bookworms interested, Sharp\’s latest offering — dubbed the Brain PW-AC10 — has packaged itself in a BlackBerry-esque candybar, which it claims makes it the industry\’s lightest e-dictionary while carrying two AAA batteries that keep it going for 110 hours. You\’ll obviously need to make do with a shrunken color LCD (2.4-inch QVGA) and keyboard, but the device still packs the same old English-Japanese translator, flashcard feature, and a seven-language traveling phrase book (with color images). ¥13,000 ($149) and it\’s yours early next month.
