Very cool! It's a little bit... purple... for me (haha) but I like it. Interestingly, the word 'hello' was not found in SYSTRAN Dictionary for Spanish, but was found via Text mode. Strange, but I guess that is SYSTRAN's problem.

Sadly, if you don't have the right fonts installed you can't see the proper translation for some languages (i.e. you have a Western Europe language BlackBerry, and want to translate to Japanese). Not your fault of course, just one of those things I was hoping would magically work. Too bad it's hard to get fonts installed like that for us...

Here is a JAD file for those of us who are not on Windows - download the ZIP file from the website and unzip it, then unzip (yes, again) the BBTran_4_3.cod file inside to get BBTran.cod and BBTran-1.cod; place this JAD file, BBTran.cod and BBTran-1.cod onto your media card (drag & drop) then use the Media -> Explore tool on your BB to click the JAD file and install.
