Lost in translation

I am currently developing a site where 8-9 different people from different countries should be able to communicate

I am using a flash based instant messenger and chat.

Im not worried about the static information on the website just the real-time interaction/communication part.

How to I translate the conversations and chats in real-time so ex:

I speak english and i want to chat with someone in the Netherlands

I press the button to translate englash --> dutch
and the other person would
translate

dutch —> english

I know about Babel Fish but I think they are out of business.

Anyone know of a down and dirty solution 2 make this happen on the cheap -e - cheap???

I’m sure some type of xml, soap, web service thingie would work but need an engine to make it happen

Let me know!!!
