Appreciate you posting the link here – if it can help me order beer in 100 different countries I’d say it’s useful!

Thanks Anil – useful yes and very easy to use. We’ve had sales in a few diverse places showing it has cross-cultural appeal.

Also had a few “nay sayers” describing it as silly but I expect they didn’t quite get it – but that’s OK too!

I have used it myself as a backup for my shoddy Italian – it works

All the best,

Stuart

I’d say the most useful I’ve found are NetStumbler, Mobile Web Docs, and the Ninenedo Emulator for those long flights and train rides
