Wizcom Technologies, based in Jerusalem, has developed the Quicktionary
Reading Pen, a handheld scanner that reads text, defines it, displays it on a
small screen, and even reads it aloud. Designed for dyslexics, the pen-shaped
device contains 200,000 definitions and stores up to 100 scanned words.

Additional info from Barney Fleming:

The Quicktionary Reading Pen is available in the states thru Seiko (the
actual developer according to press reports) and they sell it through their
educational division in Torrance, CA (877/344-4040). The price is
approximately $300 (slightly less with educational discount). They have a web
site complete with a multimedia demo at:
