This is one of those times you have to admit it's not ALL about the execution. Good ideas do matter. And they are rare.

Totally awesome, but there's a big problem. Most of the time when you're in need of translation of text you find like signs, it's because you're in another country. That means data is very expensive, because your fancy iphone is locked and roaming. It's awesome, many people may download it, but it will get very little use. :-\ They should probably charge like $5 or $10 for it, make money on people WANTING to use it,…

Just one small piece of feedback on the "commercial." It's a bit confusing for the first 10-15 seconds or so. I was too busy looking at the iPhone screen and not the billboards. Can I recommend an animated version with v/o?
Great work!
Edit: One more piece of feedback. The icon isn't nearly cool enough for how cool this app is. My prediction is that you guys are going to make a boatload of money, hire a designer sooner rather than later to spiff anything up.

The promo video's gotta be a fake--figuring out the fonts used & fitting in the same space with perfect color, etc.? Nope. Would like to see what it really does.
you'll have to download and try it :)

Also, the App is free but you have to pay for each language to language translation separately. I think it's a smart move. I may buy 'Spanish to English' for 4.99 if I am going to Mexico. If I end up in France 6 months down the line, I will buy 'French to English' at 4.99. I won't worry about spending 4.99$ but they have successfully extracted 9.98 from me. This is awesome.
If Smartphone + Wikipedia + Google = Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, then this is the Babel fish. And I’m sure that it will also, by effectively removing all barriers to communication between different cultures and races, cause more and bloodier wars than anything else in the history of creation.
See what you've done?!
