Pocket Translator by Innersky - Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General

Hi everybody!
This is a blast from the past. I was looking for a basic multi-lingual two-way dictionary and I found this freeware gem by Innersky!
Well, at first I couldn't find it because Innersky has disappeared but you can still download the programme via Wayback Machine!
Works a charm!

If you want a newer one...

This one requires a data connection, as it uses Google Translator, but it supports something like 30 languages. (All languages supported by http://translate.google.com.)

Are you talking about Virtual Earth Mobile cos this is brilliant. I used to use a version that required a java plug in but I reckon this is better excellent in fact.

This gives a cab file so dead easy to install.

Sorry if I was a little dismissive re Java version, and as I'm feeling guilty, here's a link that will help if you really want to pursue the Java, Jar, Jad, Midlet thingy route.
Note "Google Local Mobile got renamed to Google Mobile Maps (gmm) and the main Java class is now called GoogleNav."

Also some more info on Java on PDAs here:

I use the IBM J9 java emulator. Works well.
BTW You might like to have a look at MG Maps:
http://www.mgmaps.com/
It can access Google Maps, Google Satellite, MSN Road Map, MSN Aerial, MSN Aerial with labels, Yahoo Maps, Yahoo Satellite, Ask.com Maps and Ask.com Aerial. It's GPS aware (although this doesn't seem to work with my BT GPS) and can access KML overlays (although I haven't tried this out yet.)
Very nice.

People still use java??? I haven't used java on my phone since I last had a SonyEricsson! I haven't bothered with Java on WM phones.
java and flash are the future of mobiles, they just haven't realized it yet (aside from Japan ) and ajax...
I think the original poster was referring to javascript, not real java code. A lot of Banks and online sites us javascript and it used to be a big problem with ce and wm2002 and wm 2003. WM5 seems to handle some of the basic javascript and then there are several apps for addon such as IBM's j9 or websphere or what ever the name is this year. Also, midlet's are becoming more available

You mean JavaScript? Very few pages use client-side Java and I don't think this will change.

Nope, Google Earth is Midlet-based; see my Midlet & Google Earth -related articles.
Is there any way you can get a pluggin that makes java midlets (J2ME) Work any better? The ammount of midlets that install and then just do nothing is appaling? Sony Ericcsons and Nokia's have multiplayer Bluetooth Midlets that work on either device, why not on ours?? Also one in particular is REPORO (Awesome Program) They have a midlet specifically made for the Wizzard wchic works fine on the Tytn but I have found it is massively cut down! On a Nokia or Sony Ericsson or Motorola (I work in a phone shop so have everything readily available) They can all access the phones contact book and Pictures and Camera so you can send free picture messages to other REPORO users! Now Ive installed all the other brands versions onto my VARIO and they all install fine but then they dont run and crash my phone! Can I get an emulator or a pluggin to fix this?

MSN, YAHOO, AIM, Google Messenger!

Horrorscopes
And the list keeps getting bigger! Awesome software!! (MAke sure you select the O2 XDA MINI S as your device as its the only Wizzard derivative on there.
Install the J9 VM like others have mentioned.
Oh, and remember: "Write Once, Run Anywhere"...HA!!

Turn around to view right to left languages in WM5 (Japanese X01HT)

I wanted to use Persian on my mobile but I couldn't install Windows Arabic with Persian support on my Hermes Softbank X01 which has a locked rom with Japanese WM5. I tried so many different commercially available keyboards and softwares, finally this is what worked for me at no charge:
1- On a clean installation of my windows, I installed Ecatco trial for Persian from http://www.ectaco.com/Language-Support-Persian-for-Pocket-PC (actually there are 2 or 3 other packages that none worked for me incl. paragon) There are Ectaco packages for other rtl middle-eastern languages.
With this installation I got Persian font and UTF recognition in internet explorer. Typing Persian in Windows environment (even Japanese outlook) is OK however the IE shows separated LTR characters. There is no choice by default for the text direction and practically it is useless.
2- After hours of thinking, I tried the new version of Minimo (Mozilla browser for PDA). It solved the problem of text direction. Moreover, unlike old fashioned IE, Minimo is an excellent and full featured browser. I just wish my Hermes had a little bit of more base RAM. BTW, you can download the latest (still beta?) version of this smart browser from http://www.mozilla.org/projects/minimo/
Now I can catch on my news reading in Persian on the way to work on board Tokyo Metro!

OCR and camera dictionary

Dear friends,
I've been researching the area of using OCR (optical character recognition) in the field of Pocket PCs and Smartpones as basis for providing a camera dictionary.
I've stumbled over applications as
*) MediaSeek "Language Translations Via Camera Phone" application announcement, but wasn't able to verify if it is already in use
*) ABBYY Mobile OCR SDK 2.0
Just wanted to ring in and ask if you know any pocket pc applications using OCR ing?
Thanks for your help
kr Andrew
I tried using Worldcard Mobile (a commercial app) for business card OCR, but the camera on my Titan just doesn't get clear-enough resolution for macro photos... it wasn't able to recognize any of the text except the company names which are usually larger than the rest of the text.
Thanks skatsev,
This WorldCard Mobile is a very nice program - thanks for the hint - I've just tried it out and it works very well. I'm looking exactly for apps like these and am really amazed that there arn't more around....
kr Andrew
I rememebr there was one software for the SE P990 (Symbian operated) - find more here
http://3gvision.com/prod-scan.htm
I hope they will do similar to PPC
is there any other software than WorldCard Mobile?
