I'm on an ongoing quest to learn Spanish, and I thought it would be handy to have a dictionary on my mobile (cell) phone. I have a Nokia E51 - Symbian s60 34rd edition phone. I bought the paper Collins English/Spanish Dictionary and it had a link to their mobile software (5th down on this site). But before shelling out 10 pounds I thought I'd see if the hive mind could recommend any alternatives? Thanks!

Ive been learning spanish for about 8 months now and i'm really frustrated. Of course, 8 months is little time in terms of picking up a whole new language but i'm finding that going from English to Spanish seems to be a big step up in terms of complexity but what I think is most frustrating is that even if you knew all of the equivalent words, as in.. memorized the dictionary, simply translating whats in your head from english to spanish almost NEVER works.
