«©NCSX» If you're a Japanese speaking world traveler who enjoys seeing the sights and hearing the sounds of foreign lands, you basically have two options to get around once the plane reaches your destination:1) Learn the language of the country you're visiting
2) Bring a dictionary along or hire a tour guide who'll hold your hand The first option isn't practical if your language learning aptitude is rusty. You certainly don't want to blurt out "Take me to the gulag" when you really meant to say, "I wish to visit the theater." The second option may work better but if you're fumbling around the street thumbing through a 1000 page dictionary, local thieves will have found their mark of the day Sony's Talkman Travel offers a third option for travelers - a foreign language interpreter which translates words and phrases from Japanese into the local language. Three countries are supported: South Korea, Taiwan, and China (Shanghai). If you travel to South Korea, set the country in the software accordingly and preset phrases and questions which cover common subjects or inquiries are shown on screen which are accessible through a simple menu. You'll be able to ask for directions, suggestions on restaurants, the location of the lavatory, and other life savers. Just make sure you turn the volume of the PSP way up so that the foreigner can hear Talkman's voice. Jan Code: 4948872680158 View the back cover and screenshots on the main NCSX website.
