The service launched today by Lingtastic.com is initially in only 3 languages. Russian, Spanish and Portuguese (Brazilian) but will be expanded quickly to other languages. The service has also been successfully tested using ideogram based languages like Chinese as well as other non alpha languages like Thai.
This follows closely on last weeks launch of Web to SMS translation where most messages can be sent for under $1 to any SMS capable phone in the World. This includes the cost of translation and the sending of the message through the telecommunications network. However as some languages like Russian and Chinese use more of the available SMS message and can incur greater telecom costs.

Lingtastic.com provides professional live language interpreters starting from 17 cents a minute compared to the translation industry norm of 150 cents or more a minute. “Just Imagine having an inexpensive interpreter available at the touch of a button to help you out in any country any where in the world.
