Got nary a peep on the Tech forum so I'll try here next.

Have finally decided to get one of these gizmos. I speak fluent Japanese and passable German but frequently visit countries where those languages don't help..
Even if I'm with a native speaker, menus are the usually the biggest challenge...'this is a meat but I don't what you call it in english...'

Am interested in those who have tried the simple & less expensive LCD screen devices (Franklin & Lingo appear to be the main providers) versus those that actually speak the phrase/word to you thru headphones.

Also I have a Treo 600 so that's another possibility...
Tks.
