Space Age Language Translator!

I never had an ear for foreign language, and after three years studying Spanish in junior high school, all I could say was "Esta lloviendo, aqui!" which means it's raining or something like that. Pretty embarrassing.

The first time you travel to a foreign country where your native language is not spoken widely, it's a surreal experience. Everyone sounds like the adults in a Charlie Brown cartoon.

The day of enlightenment may be upon us.

For $129 The Pilot by Waverly Labs, which hits the stores in September, will provide real-time translation of French, Spanish, Italian, and English when you insert the devices into your ears.

They look a little bulky now, but of course further miniaturization is just around the corner.

c'est magnifique!
