I just discovered Anki - a free flashcard program that has a large
community of users and lots of free source material in many languages.
It lets you include media with the words so has lots of possibilities
for exporting from Elan or Transcriber.

It also has an app for ipod that costs less than $20 and takes the
same flashcards as the laptop

Here's the blurb:

Anki
Anki is a program which makes remembering things easy. Because it is a
lot more efficient than traditional study methods, you can either
greatly decrease your time spent studying, or greatly increase the
amount you learn.

Anyone who needs to remember things in their daily life can benefit
from Anki. Since it is content-agnostic and supports images, audio,
videos and scientific markup (via LaTeX), the possibilities are
endless. For example:

    learning a language
    studying for medical and law exams
    memorizing people's names and faces
    brushing up on geography
    mastering long poems
    even practicing guitar chords!
