Some dude was showing off this translator thing. You speak into it and it says what you said in German.

Is it a joke? If not, that is *the* coolest thing ever!

Got this from the site...

"BABEL-ON INTERNATIONAL TRANSLATOR

An amazing new communication aid, the Babel-On International Translator, is all set to revolutionise learning, business, communication, and tourism. When spoken into, the Babel-On instantly translates an English phrase into German and vice versa. And not only that, the machine translates in exactly the same voice as the person who speaks into it!
Lead Developer of the translator, Dr Brian Cox, will be on the show to tell us how it works and why it is just the first step in the long road toward a universal translation device. "

They'll be showing it again at the end of the show. Channel 4
