There are so many devices that are easily portable nowadays, and so many of them can access the web. Having a mobile translator is nothing more than having your web enabled mobile phone. One of my very favorite translation tools is www.google.com/translate but even better in many ways is the mobile version of the site. If you visit the Google Translate on a mobile device you will see their mobile optimized version. It lets you quickly enter a word or phrase and automatically detects the native language and returns a translation. It also keeps a running list of the terms you have translated, making it a great way to see a list of vocabulary.
