gigabyte has just released the gSmart i128. This Windows Mobile smartphone has many features under its hood; Wi-Fi, Push E-mail, a 2.1 Mega Pixel camera, and a analog TV tuner are just some of them.

But Gigabyte hopes to differentiate this model with its language features. Through a collaboration with Alta Vista's Babel Fish, the phone features "multi-lingual internet browsing and...document viewing."

I'm not sure if this is as useful as Gigabyte claims it to be. Services like the aforementioned Babel Fish and Google's Translate are still a long way from providing properly contextual translations.
