I don't know if you guys have seen this yet, but this is very awesome. Real time OCR and text translation on your iPhone.

Too good to be true I reckon. Parts of the demo video look fake.

Its already out on the app store. I dont have an iphone but I've heard in the thread I was reading about it that it works pretty well.

I agree some parts look fake i guess , it must be real though but not as accurate as they show on the vid.

It's a cool app for a fast translation especially when your on holidays or something
