Simple Translation App for Mobile Browsers iPod touch

via Lifehacker by Kevin Purdy on 5/19/08

Coder Mike Brittain has put together a super-clean site for iPhone, Blackberry, Opera Mini, and other mobile browsers that lets you quickly click two languages to translate words or phrases between and then do it. The site supports 11 languages at the moment, and you can easily bookmark a language pairing for quick access while traveling. Those without data connections should try Google's SMS translation service.
Mobile Translator


Enable Wifi on your device
open Safary and goto http://m.mikebrittain.com/tr

Than you'll be able to start using this service.

If it just translates simple phrases is it not better to use a simple bilingual dictionary which would be far more reliable? The idea of machine translation is to translate something for you and not to give you the equivalent of a phrase in another language. If you use translation on your mobile phone you probably want to translate a whole sentence, email, sms or whatever. As to me, I think mobile dictionaries are better.
