It looks great on YouTube.... in practice it's crap. I've got it on my iPhone 4. Even when I'm holding the phone perfectly still, the words are constantly flashing between Spanish and English.... that is when it can even discern a word. It does a literal word for word translation as well... it doesn't translate phrases.

I'm just hoping they'll improve the app over time.... otherwise it's worthless.

I'm betting they were very careful with the foreign statements they used for the demo.....

Similar to the Political Debates, questions are known and answered before hand.

Played with this program but I found it to be totally useless. It jumps all over the place so much so you'd be quicker using a dictionary.

I prefer the iTranlate app and it's completely free.

What part of, don't post in each others threads did you not understand?

Moving on...

Talking of apps. A friend showed me one of his iPhone that translated English voice into Spanish voice. It was very cool and appeared to work very well.
