    Hi,

    Just saw this is coming into Aldi on Sunday. It seems very useful and reasonably priced. Can anyone spot any catches?? (See picture under Sunday Specials on www.aldi.ie)

    Well, for one thing, dont bother.
    I bought the exact same one from Maplin last year.
    Worked wonderfully for french, oh, aside from the fact that the speech is barely audable unless u press your ear to it, and other language cards are like hens teeth! :mad:
    Utter waste of money, ended up giving it away.
