ECTACO’s Travel SpeechGuard TL-2 Speech to Speech Translator

Electronic translators are relatively affordable so they definately are must-haves if you are traveling abroad. Unfortunately, punching in a phrase on a little electronic device often proves to be time consuming and unpractical when struggling to ask a native which way the bathroom is. Thank goodness then that ECTACO’s Travel SpeechGuard TL-2 is not your ordinary electronic translator, it doesn’t require manually punching in a word or phrase, instead the TL-2 is a speech to speech -translator. Speak English into the device, and a voice will respond with the translated phrase or word in the language of your choice. The TL-2 also allows you create new entries for any new words that might not be included in the device, even though the chance of that happening is pretty unlikely since the TL-2 has over 1,000,000 words and over 8,000 phrases stored inside of it. The product page claims that the device also functions as a calculator and MP3 player, but it has no further details about its MP3 playing capabilities. Unfortunately, the TL-2 weighs a hefty 11 oz and it doesn’t have the prettiest or sleekest design, so chances are you won’t be throwing out your Ipod or PDA. The TL-2 supports 14 languages including Dutch, French, German, Italian, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Russian, Spanish, Greek, Bulgarian, Slovak, Swedish and Turkish and it retails for $439.95.
