跟賈伯斯學英語：賈伯斯原汁原味 iPad 2 新品發表演說

賈伯斯產品發表會演說你都聽得懂嗎？

We've been working on this product for a while, and I just didn't want to miss today . . .

And when we introduced the iPad a little less than a year ago, we said “It's our most advanced technology in a magical and revolutionary device at an unbelievable price.” Now people laughed at us for using the word “magical.” But you know what, it's turned out to be magical. Right? And, people weren't sure that it was an unbelievable price. Well, let me tell you, ask our competitors now. And they'll tell you. So, 2010 turned out to be the year of the iPad . . .

We've never had a product that got off to that fast of a start. As a matter of fact, many have said this is the most successful consumer product ever launched. Over 90 percent market share. And our competitors were just flummoxed.

我們為這項產品努力了好一陣子，我實在不想錯過今天……

我們在不到一年前推出iPad。我們說過：「這是我們以令人難以置信的價格，在一個奇妙和創新設備上展現的最先進科技。」現在人們笑我們用「奇妙的」這個字。不過你知道嗎？最後證明它的確是非常奇妙。對吧？大家不確定它的價格是否令人難以置信。我告訴你們，現在去問問我們的競爭對手。他們會告訴你的。因此，二O一O年成了iPad之年……

我們從來沒有過一個產品在一開始就賣得這麼快。事實上，許多人說這是史上推出最成功的消費性產品。市占率超過九成。把我們的競爭對手搞得暈頭轉向。
