This should also help in translating intercepted terrorist conversations.

I keep reading that many of those aren't translated, because they don't have enough translators.

Machine translations are never as good as translations by those speaking the language fluently and familiar with idioms, etc., but it can at least give an idea of what the conversation is about.

Now *this* has incredible potential for us in the War on Terror.

Fingers definitely crossed.

Coming to an Internet near you!

Seriously, Dogpile or Yahoo or Google or YouTube should license this technology, give it away to their web visitors for free, and watch as the site that has it gains a distinct advantage over the other search engines and content providers.

Excellent, I hope this will help in the translations of millions of Iraqi documents. I wonder if this software can translate the “handwritten” documents or just the typed ones.
