Interactive Spanish language programs

I would like to improve my (very basic) Spanish before I visit Colombia. I once had a computer course that included interactive games, video based conversations, and a skills meter that indicated whether your pronunciation sounded like that of a tourist or of a native speaker (rather amusing part of the course).

Anyway I'd appreciate any advice as to similar programs I could purchase that people here have found helpful.

Thanks!

Thanks for recommending bilingual america, Scott! I travel a lot so the flexibility of that program looks great. I was going to sign up for Spanish at one of the local colleges, but with my schedule I wouldn't have been able to attend all the classes.
