RosettaStone?

Has anyone used RosettaStone software for learning Hebrew - or any other language?

I want to learn Hebrew so I can study for my phD, something related to Kahanism or the issue of transfer in Israeli politics most likely.

I went through a demonstration the other day, it looks like a very good product, with lots of different exercises and it even analyses your performance, setting different tasks for you and it comments on your pronunciation, with a voice-print to show you how to say words correctly.  It is quite pricey though.

I got RosettaStone for Irish and it was completly crap. Way overpriced. Luckly I had 30 days to return it.  ;D

rebel_conservative:
really? :(

what did you not like about it?

Irish Zionist:
It was worse than any library language program but with a price tag of €400 per box set. The freaking program was actually worse because they treated you like a child. Silly stupid things really and I wasn't' learning squat. So when I returned this filth I went to my library and got a much better box set on loan for 3 weeks which cost me nothing.
