iPad 3

Everyone's waiting for the iPad 3 to be officially announced, and the rumors are flying like crazy.
每個(gè)人都在翹首企盼iPad 3的發(fā)布，流言也已甚囂塵上。

We're expecting a much nicer screen, a killer processor, and a more powerful battery.
我們希望新產(chǎn)品會(huì)有更好的屏幕，更快的處理器，還有更強(qiáng)勁的電池。

But the rumors barely end there.
但流言遠(yuǎn)不止于此。

In order to keep you up to speed, here's everything we know about the upcoming device.
以下是對(duì)iPad 3功能外觀的所有猜想。

1.視網(wǎng)膜屏幕

視網(wǎng)膜屏幕

The next iPad will reportedly have a much higher-quality display. We've even read that it could be in full HD.
據(jù)稱下一代iPad將實(shí)現(xiàn)更好的顯示效果，甚至有消息稱會(huì)達(dá)到全高清顯示。

Likelihood: high. One could even argue that retina display is overdue.
可能性：高。視網(wǎng)膜屏早就該在iPad上應(yīng)用了。

2.四核處理器

Quad-core processor
四核處理器

Apple gave us a nice improvement in processor speed from iPad 1 to iPad 2 and the rumors are that we can expect a considerable bump with a quad-core iPad 3 processor.
iPad 2的處理器與iPad 1相比有不小的進(jìn)步，傳言說(shuō)iPad 3將更進(jìn)一步，配置四核處理器。

Likelihood: high.
可能性：高。

3.更強(qiáng)勁電池

更強(qiáng)勁的電池

We've seen reports that the next iPad battery will pack some firepower with more than twice the milliamp-hours of the iPad 2 battery. This could be simply what's required to power a device with a better screen and faster processor.
有報(bào)道稱，下一代iPad電池容量將是iPad2的兩倍。這也不難理解，大容量電池是實(shí)現(xiàn)高分辨率屏幕和更快處理器的必要條件。

Likelihood: high.
可能性：高。

4.更厚

Thicker than the iPad 2
比iPad 2更厚

If the iPad 3 comes with all these previously discussed improvements, it'll require a little more breathing room that will make it thicker than the iPad 2. That's not saying too much, however, because the iPad 2 is fantastically thin.
如果前面提到的這些改進(jìn)都能在iPad 3得以實(shí)現(xiàn)，那么它可能會(huì)在厚度上做出一點(diǎn)犧牲。因?yàn)閕Pad 2實(shí)在是非常輕薄。

Likelihood: high.
可能性：高。

5. iPad2更便宜

Cheaper iPad 2
iPad 2價(jià)格跳水

The speculation is that Apple will seriously knock down the price of the iPad 2 when it introduces the iPad 3. We've seen the company do similar things before with the iPhone. When the 3GS came out, the 3G became much cheaper. When the iPhone 4 came out, the 3GS saw a discount.
人們猜想iPad 3發(fā)售時(shí)，iPad 2價(jià)格會(huì)大幅下調(diào)。這是蘋果公司的一貫做法，iPhone 3GS推出時(shí)，iPhone 3G價(jià)格下調(diào)。iPhone 4上市銷售，3GS也會(huì)降價(jià)銷售。

Likelihood: high.
可能性：高。

6.二月發(fā)布

Coming in February
在二月份發(fā)布iPad 3

We've heard all kinds of rumors about the iPad 3 release date, but the most fitting one is that it will come out on February 24, Steve Jobs' birthday.
關(guān)于iPad 3何時(shí)發(fā)布的流言有很多版本，其中最可信的一種，iPad 3將于2月24日喬布斯生日那天發(fā)布。

Likelihood: medium.
可能性：一般。

7.迷你iPad

There's been lots of talk that Apple will introduce a smaller model of iPad. While that may happen at another time, we don't see it happening for the iPad 3 launch at all.
有傳言說(shuō)蘋果公司會(huì)推出小尺寸的iPad產(chǎn)品。也許吧，但那都是以后的事情，即將發(fā)布的iPad 3不會(huì)是這樣。

Likelihood: low.
可能性：低。

8.支持4G LTE

4G LTE support
支持4G LTE（第四代移動(dòng)通訊標(biāo)準(zhǔn)）

As LTE becomes more and more readily available for speedy mobile web browsing, it makes sense for future 3G iPads to support it. We could see Apple introducing multiple models to support this -- one for standard 3G, one for the much zippier LTE.
LTE愈加成熟，可以實(shí)現(xiàn)更快速的移動(dòng)網(wǎng)絡(luò)瀏覽，未來(lái)3G版本的iPad應(yīng)該會(huì)支持這一標(biāo)準(zhǔn)。我們猜想蘋果公司可能會(huì)推出2種模式的產(chǎn)品——一種支持標(biāo)準(zhǔn)3G，一種支持更先進(jìn)的LTE。

Likelihood: medium.
可能性：一般。

9.兩款新機(jī)型

兩款新機(jī)型

Tom's Guide indicates that there will be 2 models of iPad 3 introduced at launch time. The only supposed difference between them will be the cameras -- one shoots 5 megapixel photos while the other shoots at 8 megapixels.
科技網(wǎng)站Tom's Guide稱iPad 3發(fā)布時(shí)會(huì)同時(shí)推出2款機(jī)型，兩者唯一的區(qū)別在于攝像頭：一款是500萬(wàn)像素，另一款是800萬(wàn)像素。

Likelihood: hard to say -- we suspect there would have to be a few more differences between the two devices other than the cameras to merit making them. Until we know what those differences are, we're unsure.
可能性：很難說(shuō)。如果真要同時(shí)推出兩款iPad 3，它們之間的差別應(yīng)該不只是攝像頭。在弄清楚之前，我們持懷疑態(tài)度。
