Jajah, a popular VoIP service provider, has released a new English/Chinese translation service called JAJAH.Babel just in time for the Olympic Games. The service, which was developed in conjunction with IBM, allows users to call a free number to get a near-instant translation of spoken sentences. The service isn’t meant for voice calls abroad - instead, it’s a handheld translator. After speaking your message into the phone, you hand it to the person you’re speaking with, and the phone spits out the translated message. For now, the service is limited to translations between English and Chinese Mandarin, but the companies plan to release new languages in the near future.http://www.techcrunch.com/2008/08/06/jajah-launches-instant-chineseenglish-voice-translation/
