"deleted" ?

Why? I just saw this video, too, for the first time and I think it would be awesome to hear what the Android community has to say about creating a version for us! :)

Oh sorry, this should only mean that I have deleted my post.:)

I will see the video at home (now I have only GPRS :( ).
Then i will make a new comment :)

Apparently, this was released for iPhone last night. It looks smart! My mates have shown me the free version (which just reverses the letters in words).
It'll be interesting to see how it translates whole sentences - as the structure will change between languages.
I'm not sure if the posted video is real or not - as the size and layout of the letters change on the iPhone screen.
 
It's for real. Just saw it in action on a buddy's iPhone. It's a little wonky, but we suspect that it's because he's on an iPhone 3GS, and that on the new hardware this might not be an issue.

Pretty impressive bit of software.
 
Google goggles does this, with more languages, but in a way less awesome way.

already emailed the dev for an android version, everyone should do it :)

Goggles is terrible when trying to translate a menu or something like that. It just lists the text and then you got to try figure out what word went with what. That and I end up paying a fortune in internet roaming charges when I get back from a trip
