Google Goggle version AWESOME Rate Topic: -----

If you don't know what GoogleGoggles is, it's this thing where you can take a picture on your phone and it will translate text from the photo for you. How hard would it be to add a font recognizer/emulator and a photoshop-ish thing so that there is an app that puts the translated text back in the context of the photo? I feel as though it wouldn't be terribly more difficult for languages that use very similar alphabets such as translating between English and Spanish or between Arabic and Farsi.

It's unfortunate that there doesn't appear to be an Android equivalent.
