Whether one can imagine a situation in which it might be worth $600 depends on your love of gadgetry. The new Ectaco iTRAVL TL-6 is a “talking dictionary”--a thin hand-held computer with a speaker that can translate eight languages. Its most fun feature is the wand--you run it over any text and see the words repeated on the screen. Press “OK.” ¡Bien! The translation appears on-screen or via a robotic voice. Twenty-eight more languages are due by Christmas.
