We got it on trade at WDW Magic Kingdom, went directly to "Scoop" to get the scoop, and was told he had never seen one which made us smile (we're still smiling).
The "Ears to the World" is a headset device which translates portions of various shows and rides around WDW into foreign languages. First used at "Walt Disney: One Man's Dream" at the Disney-MGM Studios, the device's database was recently expanded to incorporate more attractions.
