Pretty much the worst purchase I've ever made September 16, 2008
J. Crawford (Portland, OR)
I bought this thinking the concept is perfect: a software app that helps me translate quick traveler questions into foreign languages. What a perfect way to use my iPod touch to its greatest potential.

I couldn't have been more wrong. The "installer" is a joke, and the "software" is nothing more than a Web page. Um, call me crazy, but creating a Web based application for STATIC CONTENT that is DESIGNED TO BE USED IN A FOREIGN COUNTRY is beyond idiotic. Not only did the product cost $30, but now they expect me to pay data charges to use it???

The interface is WRETCHED and each laborious phrase clicked on requires the launch of a separate page to hear the word. I mean, I've seen bad UI before, but this... Let's just say the most elegantly designed part of this product is the box it comes in.

If I could give a negative star review, I would in a heartbeat. Don't buy this.

An expensive pack of lies December 19, 2007
J. Michael (New York, NY)
I was so excited when I saw this in the apple store, I immediately bought it. Claiming to be a software package for ipod and iphone, it was an immediate disappointment. All this is is a website that is optimized for the iphone. It takes a very long time to load, and once it does load, the styles and javascript they made it with do not work well enough so it all jumbles together. Plus every time you try to listen to a translation, it opens another page, meaning, when you go back, it reloads the whole index again. It's terrible. Just terrible. It also looks like signing up for either pack, enables access to both packs. /asia and /euro I really wish they had mentioned that before I bought both of them. The good news is, unlike how it says their ipod software works, you can use both packs FROM the iphone, as it's not actually iphone software.
