But that compares with nearly 47m iPads,
应该是四千七百万吧。。。。

给lz送花，辛苦啦~~译得很流畅呢~~
有几个小地方想跟lz讨教一下，因为看得比较慢，就先问问第一段哈~

1.had to twiddle their thumbs rather than click away at their smartphones
原译：不是点击自己的智能机，而是无奈地玩弄自己的大拇指
lz的翻译是没有错的，只是根据上文，是因为失灵导致用户无法继续用手机，而如果译成“不是点击”，感觉有一点用户主观的“不想用手机”的意思在里面，好像弱化了手机本身失灵的影响。试译“无法在智能机上啪啪打字，只能无奈地玩手指”

2.Plenty tweeted their rage at Research in Motion (RIM), the Canadian company that makes BlackBerrys—presumably from other devices.
原译：许多人可能使用其他设备在微博上发泄对RIM公司（加拿大黑莓手机制造商）的不满。
这句主要是觉得如果将“可能使用其他设备”放在句子靠前的地方，一来是如果只看中文的话，给人的感觉是在微博上宣泄不满是可能发生而不是一定发生的，跟原句有点出入，原句的“presumbly”只修饰了“from other devices”,并没修饰tweet;二来是少了英文原句的那种强调黑莓失灵了而不得不使用其他设备的语意，调整一下语序，试译为“许多人都在微博上发泄对RIM公司（加拿大黑莓手机制造商）的不满。当然，很可能使用了其他设备。”

这些都是有些吹毛求疵了，lz见谅哈。。。。

曾经的黑莓情结：还记得以前老板说好好干，以后配个黑莓专门随时处理国外邮件==’顿时精明能干的职业女性形象浮现于脑中。。。。。。没想到黑莓也到了气数已尽的时候？！

According to Gartner, a research and consulting firm
原译：高德纳（一家信息技术研究和分析的公司）数据显示
好像没有“信息技术”的对应英文。。。

life is fairly simple with a PC on every desk and a BlackBerry, connected to the corporate e-mail system, in every hand
原译：人手一台私人电脑和一部黑莓手机，连接到公司的邮箱系统
life is fairly simple不见了。。

Whatever wonders its co-chairmen and chief executives, Jim Balsillie and Mike Lazaridis, have worked in the past, two leaders now look as bad as none.
原译：不论怎样对它的联合首席执行官 Jim Balsillie 和Mike Lazaridis（他们过去共事过）感到好奇，但是两位领导的表现很差。
感觉这里的wonders应该是名词，试译：不论它的联合董事长和首席执行官Jim Balsille 和 Mike Lazaridis 过往缔造过怎样的奇迹，现在他们的情况糟透了。

怎么少了一段啊？？

The cause of the problem, RIM executives explained, lay in the failure of a switch in its European infrastructure (in Slough, west of London). A redundant switch that should have taken over did not. That caused a backlog of messages in Europe and hence the initial regional delays. The spread of the problem to the Americas by October 12th seems to have been a consequence of the global nature of BlackBerry traffic, as messages to and from Europe built up and caused delays on the other side of the Atlantic.

我一直用黑莓，喜忧掺半。

按照我们手机行业的说法哦，A QWERTY keyboard 最好翻译成QWERTY键盘或者是全键盘，而不是标准键盘。

YOU can’t live with them, but you can’t live without them. Users of BlackBerry smartphones often curse the flashing red light that tells them, wherever they are, that yet another e-mail demands their attention. But they curse its absence even more.
---------------------------------
你真是受不了他们，但是没有他们，你又实在受不了。黑莓手机用户总之抱怨，受不了那手机上得小红灯闪啊闪的，没完没了地催促他们还有邮件没看。但是现在小红灯没了，他们反而更受不了了，开始抱怨，小红灯哪去了~~


好玩吧~

原来只要点一下就行，现在得拿两只手摆弄

引用 aubreychen 2011-10-18 09:52

For many, service had been interrupted for the second day running.
对于很多人来说，基本上都是第二天他们一起床就开始失灵了

引用 aubreychen 2011-10-18 09:56

Commuters and corporate road warriors needing to keep in touch with colleagues and clients swear by them, as well as into them and at them.
------------------------------
断句错了。
主句：Commuters and corporate road warriors  swear by them, as well as into them and at them.
Commuters and corporate road warriors 信赖别且常用 黑莓，经常用黑莓打电话什么的骂别人，也经常抱怨黑莓手机本身这、那的毛病。

引用 aubreychen 2011-10-18 10:12

It has not helped that RIM was slow to get new products to market, although phones with a new operating system are now appearing尽管拥有崭新运行系统的手机浮出水面，但这并没有影响到RIM缓慢地把新产品推向市场。
--------------------------------
这句话这个意思没有翻译出来It has not helped that RIM was slow to get new products to market，新产品推出缓慢也是RIM的一大问题。
