heading to africa in a month and need a serious french translation tool. Is there anything close to the power of Vocre available on the blackberry platform?

Any other apps that would help also appreciated

There are translation apps in App World. I did the search for you.

I had seen all those in app world. I was looking for something closer to the iOS app called Vocre that allows person A to speak into the phone in one language and have the phones speaker output back the translated text to user B in another language. Will try ispeech. It seems to be what I am looking for

Translation software, at its best, is rudimentary. A dictionary could certainly be helpful, or a basic phrase book, but I can't imagine speaking into an app and making myself clearly understood in the local language.

Why not quickly study up on French phrases and greetings?
