This is is the one that we are looking at, for us english users, esp learners, we need more of the jap-eng dictionary rather than the eng jap dictionary.

i bought this dictionary at
http://http://www.smartimports.net/product.php?productid=16245&cat=0&page=1&featured

It's very reliable n the product comes within a week. service is excellent! but the price might put u off a bit. lol, plus shipping it's 680+ dollars. BUT ITS WORTH IT!


hmmm... u too shop at smartimports.net.... me bought mine at there too :D

Unfortunately, this book can only get through me. It's not sold in SG. One of the schools uses this to teach JLPT 2.
