苹果的全新iPad 六大新特性

APPLE used to be coy about its upcoming products. The press invitation unveiling of its latest iPad tablet computer depicted a finger pressing a high-resolution touch-screen with the label: "We have something you really have to see. And touch." In the event, perhaps the biggest surprise to come out of the presentation by Apple's boss, Tim Cook, was that the company is calling the device just "iPad" and not, as had been expected "iPad 3".

苹果总爱对自己的新产品严格保密。在新iPad平板电脑发布会上，有一只手指按在一块高分辨率的触摸屏上，旁边还注明着这样一段话：“我们要让你真正去看，去摸”。或许后来真正让人惊讶的是苹果CEO蒂姆•库克仅仅把新产品称为“ipad”，而不是人们预期的“iPad3”。

To be sure, the svelte gizmo sports a plethora of improvements over its numbered predecessor, the iPad 2. Its new "Retina Display" boasts four times as many pixels, close to the limit of human perception, and its four-core graphics processor makes the experience of what was already the smoothest tablet smoother still. Lower-resolution apps, such as those developed for earlier iPads, still look sharp on the new device (each old pixel is translated into four new ones), something rival Android devices, which come in a variety of shapes and sizes, struggle with. It also has a better, 5-megapixel camera. But these changes had been much anticipated in the blogosphere's techier quarters.
