You're just ahead of the crowd Tim! If I was a betting man, I'd put money on Everytrail to win it. Wonder what their model is though.

Seems weird to me that Translations.com got through for many of same reasons you mentioned. Plus there's that 800 pound gorilla called Google in the room that lets you do exactly the same thing. In less than an hour. Free of charge. Oh well... didn't see the preso, so might have missed something there.
