Word Lens for Iphone, Ipad, Ipod Touch, etc.

I downloaded Word Lens the other week to show one of my Charleston clients who owns an import/export business.

My likes:  Word Lens augments reality in real-time; it provides Spanish to English and vice-versa for $4.99.  Useful for quick translations like menus, signs, and provides the gist of what a small phrase or note may say.

My dislikes:  Word Lens  needs more work.  Small camera movements causes it to battle to recapture and translate text, sometimes with inconsistent results.  My experience is that Word Lens does not accurately translate paragraphs of text.

Bottom Line:  Set your expectations accordingly.  Hopefully with time, this app will grow in quality, accuracy and additional language packs.
