I was speachless during yesterday's google demos

Yesterday evening during the keynote of Eric Smith and his colleagues I was speachless, when they demonstrated that it will become so easy in the future to translate anything (e.g. a menue in a foreign language) using google goggles text recognition plus google translate on mobile phones. Also... imagine this: In the future you might talk to someone in China, who only speaks Mandarin and you only speak English, however google speach recognition and google translate directly translates your communication in real-time. Amazing thought. Voice-based search was also really impressive. One reporter started the questioning session with "google rocks" - I must agree!
