I bought this game today in Austria knowing it willl help me with my German and my upcoming spanish games. The game cost 49,99 €, roughfly 65$, Austria has a 20 PERCENT TAX rate! Opening the game, you see a Microphone about 1 inch long that attaches to your USB port on the PSP. The Game will translate between English, German, Spanish, French, Japanese and Italian.

The speaking is very clear and can be slowed down. The game also includes unit conversions. If you're taking a language class, this is a great tool. It also has an app where it checks your accent, then gives you a report card. Overall, good app.

no not very accurate, you have to be in the right category to begin with (travel, walking, shoping etc) and it picks up a few words and shows the phrases it has for you you to translate.. most of the time the phrase I want isn't there...

from the game itself you could learn some basics.. but I got tired of loading times, maybe if you rip it to ms it works fine (like the sims2)

but nice gadget, the mic worked for a while playing socom. but after I posted it a week later it didn't work no more (together with the 2.71 update, think it was coincidence but still..)

When I am in spain, I get more help from the solvo-ed dictionary in my phone...

Talkman still works with the socom headset..
