"We think this is a real game changer in how people can start living the cloud," said Sundar Pichai, the senior vice president in charge of Chrome and apps at Google, as he unveiled the Pixel in San Francisco on Thursday. Maybe. But the catch is that the Pixel, which will ship next week, costs a jaw-dropping $1,299 for a WiFi-only model. A version with LTE to connect to high-speed cellular networks is coming in April and will cost $1,449.

“我们认为这是一款革命性的产品，它将引领人们的云生活。”也许吧。不过关注点在于，即将运往全球各地的Pixel价格高达惊人的1,299美元，这还是只支持Wifi的版本。将在四月发行、使用长期演进技术、连接高速细胞网络的版本价格将高达1,449美元。

That's likely to be a tough sell. For $100 less than the base model, you can get a 13-inch MacBook Air from Apple (AAPL), the popularity of which essentially spurred the creation of the ultrabook category in the first place. The Air may not have a touch screen, but you can do all the cloud computing you want and run just about any desktop program. You can store your photos, music and videos, and yes, back them up in the cloud if you want.

这款产品很可能不好卖。花上比这台基础版少100美元的价钱，你就能买到13英寸的苹果Macbook Air。起初正因为它的人气，才促使了超极本的诞生。Air可能没有触摸屏，不过你可以在上面进行任何你想要的云计算，同时还可以运行任何桌面程序。可以储存照片、音乐和视频。如果你愿意，还可以把它们备份在云系统里。
