Next time when you travel to some place and want to translate something which is written in German, French, Spanish or English then just capture it and translate it using Translate !t. Yes! This is what Translate !t does. It recognizes character in Images and then translates it using Bing Translator.

You can download the Setup and Source Code from here.

If this is the first time you are developing for Windows Phone 7, then I strongly suggest you to read this tutorial by ScottGu. The tutorial also talks about the tools required for developing Windows Phone 7 applications.
In one my earlier article, you learnt how you can develop a Weather Application for Windows 7. We will be using the same logic to develop this application, however this time for Windows Phone.
Read the rest of my article in dotnetcurry.

regKey.SetValue(Application.ProductName, Application.ExecutablePath)
regKey.Close()
