It's Thursday, May 19th. I'm Wilson Tang and it's time to get loaded.

今天是5月19日,周二。我是Wilson Tang,是时候接受今天的最新科技资讯了。

Yesterday, we reported on a major Android security vulnerability that could have allowed someone to snoop a user's identity over an unencrypted wifi connection. Google for its part has responded immediately by rolling out a fix on its servers which will require no action from users. It's expected to take the next few days in the centrally forces all Android devices to connect over HTTPS.

昨天我们报道了安卓存在安全漏洞,别人有可能通过未加密的wifi网络获取用户信息。事件一出谷歌马上做出回应,进行修补工作,用户无需做任何操作。有可能接下来几天,谷歌会集中精力在安卓产品如何连接http的问题上。

Amazon in Germany may have leaked the price of the anticipated HP Pre 3, at least in Germany the Pre 3 was listed at 449 Euros or 640 US dollars. Unfortunately the listing page did not have an availability date, and so far HP has yet to announce a launch date.

德国亚马逊提前透露了惠普Pre 3的价格,在德国Pre 3的售价至少在449到640欧元。但不幸的是,亚马逊的清单页面没有标注日期,而惠普也没有公布发售日期。

Amazon has entered the trade-in market for your old gadgets. To start on the new online punch shot program, users can now pick from a list of 2515 gadgets and must list their condition. Amazon in turn will let you know how much they will give you for your old iPod and send you a prepaid shipping label.

亚马逊开办旧物回购业务。这项在线业务刚刚开始,用户有2515种物品可以通过亚马逊回收,但用户必须标明旧物的使用情况。亚马逊会回复用户,例如会付给你多少钱来回收你的旧iPod,并给用户预付的运费。

Comcast has rolled out a new update to its iPhone and iPod touch Xfinity TV app. The new update allows users to access video on demand just like the iPad version could since February. The app will let you watch 25 networks but only if you're on a wifi connection.3G is still a no goal.

康卡斯特(美国最大的有线系统公司)升级了iPhone和iPod touch的Xfinity电视应用。从2月开始,新应用将允许用户可以自选视频,就如iPad版本一样。通过这款新应用,用户将可以观看25个网络电视频道,但用户必须有无线网络。另外这款应用还不具备3G功能。

Quantum computer has been the staff of high-end physics and science fiction, but now you can buy your very own quantum computer. A company called D-Wave has launched the world's first commercially available quantum computer, and it comes at a quip of 128 cubic processor that will make it much easier to break encryption keys. But the D-Wave I—as it's called—will cost you a cool 10 million dollars to start.

量子计算机一直应用于高端物理学和其他科学领域,但现在你也可以购买一台属于自己的量子计算机了。一款名叫D-wave的量子计算机成为了世界上首部商业用途的量子计算机,它具有128立方的处理器,这样将更加容易地破解加密密钥。但D-wave售价达到1千万美元之高。

And finally, Angry Birds was announced for Windows Phone 7 months ago, but users should expect to be prepared to wait to get their pig busting fixe. Microsoft says that the new Angry Birds which was scheduled for release at the end of this month won't be available until June 29th.

最后一条消息,7个月前《愤怒的小鸟》宣布将发布Windows手机应用,但用户们要再等一等了。微软表示本将于这个月底上线的《愤怒的小鸟》将推迟到6月29日与大家见面。
