Anyone Have A Review On Ectaco's Itravl English<->thai Ntl-2th 2-way Language Translator?

[MaiThaiMai]

Can't see buying one without seeing one in action or getting (a majority of positive) feedback from current owners...

Ad claims "By simply speaking into the iTRAVL, you can have your phrases instantly translated and spoken aloud using a sophisticated combination of speech recognition modules, real human voice narration and speech synthesis. "

This unit's claims seems too good to be true even at USD $469.00 (15,500 Baht).

TIA
