The Jibbigo app should be something handy to have along especially for travelers who have to deal with some language barriers. Translation is a key necessity for some people and with the use of their iPhone and this translating app, live could be easier and clearer for them. The app is the Jibbigo app which can translate spoken English dialects into Spanish and vice-versa. However it can only record and translate one sentence in a time which may still need some effort on the iPhone owner’s part. But it is better than not understanding one another at all!

The Jibbigo app is now available and retails for $24.99.

Comics have become the next focus of attention as far as apps for the iPhone or iPod Touch these days and it looks like a marquee comic label will be joining the ranks of Comixology, iVerse and Panelfly. Last August, the lack of known comic brands was brought up here on Mobile Whack and it looks like the developers of the app heard us.

Several new and classic comic book issues will be added to their roster which should get the fancy of people who have started using their iPhones for their comic book collection and reading needs. Prices vary among the three developers though but if you want the cheapest one, then Panelfly should be it with a $0.99 price tag although you may want to consider the comic issues before deciding to purchase the app and from whom.

The new iTunes terms & conditions have a new paragraph which reveals more details about Apple TV 3.0. You’ll be happy to know that Apple TV 3.0 will offer support for iTunes LP and Extras viewing as soon as it becomes available. These features will be available only on those computers running iTunes 9 or higher and Apple TV 3.0 or higher.

Apple announced the iTunes LP format back in September and in case you forgot, iTunes LP will let you access a lot of bonus material about your favorite artists. iTunes Extras does the same thing with movies so you’ll probably enjoy both features once they become available. We have no idea when Apple TV 3.0 will become available but we’re expecting it to arrive soon.

Epocware has released a new application for the Symbian S60 platform, version 3.0 and 5.0. It is named “Handy Phoneguard” and as the name suggests it is suppose to guard your cellphone. In other words, it won’t authorize other people to access your data in case you lose the phone.

The Handy Phoneguard has a special feature that seems pretty good, which is protecting your data - contacts, messages, images, videos, etc- via password and encryption - so whoever gets (or steals) your phone won’t have that joy…

Other features of the Phoneguard include: delete data in case the cellphone gets stolen; and setting up a password when turning on the phone.
