My imagination is going just a little wild with this stuff, but it just seems so easy to imagine that with modern "shrinkage" of everything technical that a device we should all have at our disposal, be in on the Internet, our PC's, and in our pockets, would be a language translator (with software + large dictionaries built right into thumbnail size ROM/RAM). I'm extremely tempted to go into the [OT] reasons for why we so badly need this.
