unwieldy in use

The device does what it says, but just like that. Due to the low price there for 3 *.
I would still not buy it.
-. The ABC keyboard is sheer agony why you could not use QWERTY-I'll never understand. The special characters such as ".-" hiding in x submenus. Switching between uppercase, lowercase letters and numbers is also annoying.
- The device sucks the batteries run madly. And I use already 2300 mAh Ni-MH batteries. So we can use its own battery and does not need to buy any esoteric overpriced Li-ion batteries.
- The tapes are relatively expensive.
I would and will soon take up a USB device.
