[乔布斯苹果4发布演讲]苹果发布iPad2,乔布斯病后首度露面

Apple CEO Steve Jobs, who is on a health-related leave from the tech powerhouse, is considering making an appearance at a San Francisco event today to roll outthe iPad 2, according to a published report.

If he does attend the event, Jobs is expected to make a brief appearance on stage along with other top Apple execs to tout the latest version of the widely popular tablet, according to The Wall Street Journal"s All Things Digital Web site.

However, some industry sources feel an appearance by Jobs to promote the new device could result in "rubbernecking" because of his reported weight loss and could serve to distract the media from the rollout of the iPad 2, which is sleeker than its predecessor and contains front- and rear-facing cameras, a larger speaker, a faster processor and other upgrades.

Even if Jobs does take the stage, insiders aren"t expecting him to deliver one of his signature keynote speeches. Phil Schiller, Apple"s senior vice president of worldwide product marketing, is expected to be the ringmaster for iPad 2 dog-and-pony show, as he was for the iPhone 3GS.

Today"s iPad 2 introduction is designed to steal the thunder of Motorola"s Android-based Xoom tablet and other Android-based tablets in the pipeline that are trying to break Apple"s stronghold on the consumer tablet market, rather than prompt more speculation about Jobs" health.

苹果公司执行长乔布斯(Steve Jobs)2日意外在旧金山现身,发表新一代平板计算机iPad 2,新款产品不但更快、更轻、更薄,且配备前后摄影镜头。

乔布斯说:“我们研发这项产品花了不少时间,我不想错过这个重大日子。”乔布斯显得憔悴但活力充沛,他穿着招牌服装--黑色高领套头衫和牛仔裤登场。

今年1月因不明疾患请病假的乔布斯表示,新iPad 2的特色包括配备前后摄影镜头,能拍照和进行视讯交谈,且较先前版本更薄。

iPad 2厚度仅8.8毫米,而第1代则厚13.4毫米。

乔布斯说:“新的iPad 2实际上较iPhone 4更薄。是显著薄,不是薄一点,而是薄了1/3。”

新版iPad重量仅1.3磅,较原先版本1.5磅轻,将有黑白两款机身。电池续航力与先前相同约10小时,待机时间达1个月。

乔布斯又说,iPad 2售价与先前相同,介于499美元至829美元。预定3月11日在美国上市,包括日本、法国和德国等另外26个国家则于3月25日推出。

乔布斯指出,iPad 2采用新款A5处理器,“速度显着加快”。他说:“在这个装置上图像非常棒。”

苹果也发表iPad的新配件,能让使用者把此平板电脑与高画质电视链接,方便在更大屏幕上观赏分辨率达1080p的影片。
