Talkman in Europe

A very interesting PSP accessory called the Talkman is making it's way over to Europe. "What is a Talkman?" asks you, well, you see, a Talkman is a kind of translation tool. Complete with big blue bird and nice shiny microphone peripheral the Talkman is a pretty ambitious venture. It uses voice recognition to translate certain languages for you. Previously supporting only Japanese, Chinese, Korean and English, the new European edition has added Italian, Spanish, French, and German. The Talkman, which was announced as early as July of '04, has experienced tremendous hopes and expectations, followed by pretty mixed reviews. No word yet on a U.S. release, but I'll keep my ear to the wall. Or something like that.
