I'm sorry, but I don't recall CBFB. What does that stand for, please, and
do you think they still have it?
Someone just recommended a product at Enable.mart, which I tried to check
out , but found very little info on the site about the product. The price
was $42 something, which isn't bad at all, but I wouldn't pay that kind of
money only knowing that it offered the use of the defined word in a sentence
. There wasn't even a statement about how many words were defined. Again,
I really want something that shows parts of speech, syllabification,
etimology, usage notes, all the things you expect to find in a good, printed
dictionary. I remember when I was a kid at Perkins, there were braille
dictionaries in the study halls which had 32 or 33 volumes, showing all of
those things; they exist somewhere, and in this electronic age I would
expect it should be possible to scan such braille pages to recreat the files
for those volumes and get them back in circulation.

CBFB years ago produced the American Heritage Dictionary in computerized
format.
I have found it very useful.
