Lingo Navigator: 12 Language Talking Translator

Have
you ever needed to find a train station but been afraid
to reveal your tourist identity with that cumbersome
phrase book? Or ordered what you thought was
a noodle dish, only to be served chicken feet? Next
time you’re speechless in a foreign destination,
the Lingo Navigator could be the answer to your translation
woes.
Travelers
who don’t speak the language can blend in with
the locals by consulting this palm-sized international
dictionary featuring twelve different languages. In
the center, a dial scrolls through and audibly translates
over 9,000 phrases and 30,000 words, much like the
menu on an iPod. Because of this, the Navigator
requires extra time to search for a desired term or
sentence, and users should not expect to have instant
lingo-help in case of emergency. Additional features
include visitor information on the countries represented
by each language, metric and currency converters, an
alarm clock with world time, and even a hangman quiz
game. The Lingo Navigator won’t just prevent
tourists from paying an outrageous price for knockoff
shoes—it could also help linguistically-challenged
explorers retain words and phrases that will accompany
them on future journeys around the globe.
