I've always found language translators a bit clumsy to use. They help you speak another language, but they rarely help you understand the response you get. Google Translate Mobile is now alpha testing a new feature called Conversation Mode. I'm not sure if this has been deployed in their iOS version, but it is available in their Android versions... albeit Spanish being the only language available for this feature for now.
It works just like the regular Google Translate. You speak into the mic in either English or Spanish, your phone speaks the translation and prepares to listen in the appropriate language.

Over all, it's pretty cool. I'm hoping they add German to that list pretty soon...
**Update, this now supports a lot more languages**
