Anyone fluent in Spanish, Italian, German, or French?  I'd like to play with Google Translate in conversation mode at the next meeting.

That's pretty cool.  Looks like it only does Spanish-English right now; my Spanish is rustier than my German, but that shortcoming might make for some amusing results. ;)

Sadly the only German I know I learned from Wolfenstein3d and Rammstein lyrics but it translated "My life!" and "You hate me." just fine.  They said it's only Spanish to English for now but when I looked at French, Italian, and German today they worked in conversation mode.  I'm running Android version 2.2 on my Evo, maybe if differs in v2.1.  There isn't voice support for Chinese or Japanese yet.
