$5 for English to Spanish + $5 for Spanish to English? No thanks. I'll just wait till Google acquires them and I can get it for free. They are definitely trying to get bought by Google.

$5 is too much for augmented reality translation?

It isn't huge, but for the amount I'd use it, meh. I'm pretty sure that it would mostly be a "looky what my phone can do" type of thing. I don't plan on a trip to Spain or South America soon.

Anyone used a webcam with the iPad? Is it easy to set up? Any recommendations of ones to get (or not get)?

If they had German I would buy it. (I'd probably buy it for my brother and arrange to borrow his phone.)

I just saw it in action. I highly recommend spending $5 even just for the "wow" factor. It reminds me of he first time I saw Shazam

DisplayPad is an app that turns your iPad into a 2nd display for your Mac. It works amazingly well. Basically, you're getting an external monitor for 99 cents!
