translator? no.. there are no good apps for that. Machine translation of asian languages to English is still not that great.

Dictionary, the YBM one is the best I've tried. Pricey yes, but head and shoulders above any of the $7 apps I tried.
includes idioms, hot linking of words, and about 90% of the words come with lots of example sentences so you can really get a sense of how to use the word and how to use it in different situations.

Oh man - thank gold for having an iPod touch! It sure makes life easier here. I don't hear one screaming / stamping / stomping / slamming / slurping Korean kid when I have the headphones on. Good stuff.

Thank for the replies- Actually, it's more for a friend and I think they just want something portable and basic for the moment- none seems to be available for the cellphone?
