Big, Ugly Bezel
黑框又大又丑


Have you seen the bezel on this thing?! It's huge! I know you don't want to accidentally input a command when your thumb is holding it, but come on.

看见这玩意儿四周的大边框没？超大啊！我明白你担心拿着电脑的时候不小心输入命令，但是拜托啊，不用这样吧！

No Multitasking
不能多任务运行

This is a backbreaker. If this is supposed to be a replacement for netbooks, how can it possibly not have multitasking? Are you saying I can't listen to Pandora while writing a document? I can't have my Twitter app open at the same time as my browser? I can't have AIM open at the same time as my email? Are you kidding me? This alone guarantees that I will not buy this product.

这一定是个麻烦事。如果 iPad 想取代上网本的话，怎么可能不支持多任务运行呢？我写文档就不能听之声了？我开了浏览器就不能开Twitter应用了？ 写个邮件就不能在线聊天了？开玩笑，就这一条我肯定不买。

No Cameras
没摄像头

No front facing camera is one thing. But no back facing camera either? Why the hell not? I can't imagine what the downside was for including at least one camera. Could this thing not handle video iChat?

没有前置摄像头就算了，后面也没有？凭啥不装啊？我就没看出来装个摄像头能有啥问题。是不是这电脑玩不来视频iChat啊。

Touch Keyboard
触摸键盘

So much for Apple revolutionizing tablet inputs; this is the same big, ugly touchscreen keyboard we've seen on other tablets, and unless you're lying on the couch with your knees propping it up, it'll be awkward to use.

苹果大肆鼓吹的平板电脑输入，跟我们在其他平板电脑上看见的一样又大又难看。想打字？你只能躺沙发上用腿当支架。

No HDMI Out
没有HDMI高清输出

Want to watch those nice HD videos you downloaded from iTunes on your TV? Too damned bad! If you were truly loyal, you'd just buy an AppleTV already.

想在电视上看看你用iTunes下载的漂漂的HD高清视频？没门儿！如果你对水果牌有足够的品牌忠诚度，不如直接买个苹果电视吧。

The Name iPad
iPad这个名字太冷了

Get ready for Maxi pad jokes, and lots of 'em!

等着让人拿 pad 开涮吧，会有很多笑话的！

小编注：有种生活用品的英文就叫pad，见下图

No Flash
不支持Flash

No Flash is annoying but not a dealbreaker on the iPhone and iPod Touch. On something that's supposed to be closer to a netbook or laptop? It will leave huge, gaping holes in websites. I hope you don't care about streaming video! God knows not many casual internet users do. Oh wait, nevermind, they all do.

对iPhone或者iTouch来说，没Flash就算了，不是啥大事。但是号称无限接近上网本或者笔记本的东东不支持Flash？你会网页上看见一个一个不能显示的大洞。还有，但愿你不是很在意流媒体，听说确实有网络用户在乎哈。话说，是人都在乎吧。

Adapters, Adapters, Adapters
转换线，转换线，转换线

So much for those smooth lines. If you want to plug anything into this, such as a digital camera, you need all sorts of ugly adapters. You need an adapter for USB for god's sake.

实在是受够这些线了。你想把什么东西插电脑上，比如说数码相机吧，你就得需要各种各样难看的转换线。连插个USB都得转换线，苍天啊！

It's Not Widescreen
不是宽屏的

Widescreen movies look lousy on this thing thanks to its 4:3 screen, according to Blam, who checked out some of Star Trek on one. It's like owning a 4:3 TV all over again!

什么年代了还玩4:3，宽屏电影怎么看啊。有个朋友用iPad看了《星际迷航》，据说像是又回到了看4:3屏幕电视的时代。

Doesn't Support T-Mobile 3G
不支持T-Mobile的3G

Sure, it's "unlocked." But it won't work on T-Mobile, and it uses microSIMs that literally no one else uses.

嗯哼，平板电脑是“不锁定的”，但是T-Mobile就用不了，它得用microSIMs，除了AT&T，没人用这个，啥叫文字游戏啊。

A Closed App Ecosystem
糟糕的苹果应用

The iPad only runs apps from the App Store. The same App Store that is notorious for banning apps for no real reason, such as Google Voice. Sure, netbooks might not have touchscreens, but you can install whatever software you'd like on them. Want to run a different browser on your iPad? Too bad!

iPad只能用苹果商店里的应用，就是那个臭名昭著的经常会莫名其妙就禁掉应用的店，上网本可能没有触摸屏，但是你想装啥软件就能装啥软件。iPad哩？想换个浏览器？省省吧。
