The PowerDic dictionary speaks volumes about Samsung, Diotek and Acapela.

Acapela has been chosen by Diotek, a leading supplier of mobile solutions in Korea, to voice empower its top-of-the-range digital dictionary. With PowerDic, Acapela’s high quality text to speech solution makes it possible to hear English via a number of PDAs, to assist tourists, students or professionals in their daily use of English, whatever the circumstances.

Acapela’s solution will provide PowerDic users with an immediate vocal response to help them with pronunciation difficulties and provide them with constant support, whether they are in a learning, travel or work situation.

PowerDic is a complete PDA software suite which includes comprehensive dictionaries in Korean, English, Japanese and Chinese. A pleasant interface and advanced search system enable users to take full advantage of their digital dictionaries and, through Acapela’s text to speech solution, transform a simple portable device into a powerful communication and learning tool.

"English is currently one of the most important languages when it comes to education and business, particularly in Korea. Now, thanks to Acapela’s high quality text to speech solution, PowerDic, Diotek’s new dictionary for PDAs, is an essential tool for students, tourists and professionals who wish to learn English," stated Jung In-Doh, President of Diotek.

PowerDic, which is marketed primarily via the Internet on the Diotek website and will shortly be distributed via a network of partner websites, including Handango, PocketGear and PalmGear, can also be packaged in PDAs or distributed separately by portable device manufacturers, such as Samsung Electronics and HP.

Acapela, which is currently expanding its presence on the Asian market, recently added Korean to its portfolio of available languages in order to offer more to its clients and perfect its expertise, particularly on the Asian mobile and automotive markets.
