Samsung is hitting the 3D TV market with a bang. The company introduced the first protable blue-ray 3D player yesterday. The Samsung, the BDC 8000 has a 10.1 inch screen. It also has built in Wifi access. However, if you want to watch anything in 3D, you have to pipe the content to a 3D capable TV, and of course wear those funky³ glasses.

三星重磅出击3D电视市场。昨天，三星公司出品了首款便携式蓝光3D播放器——BDC 8000。这款播放器拥有10.1寸显示屏，可适用wifi网络。不管怎样，如果你想看3D画面，你必须将文件转化为3D TV可播放的格式，当然，你还要佩带时髦的3D眼镜。

If you like football, how about watching a game in 3D? The Verizon FiOS 1 Channel is planning to broadcast the pre-season and a filed game in 3D on September 2nd. It would be a preseason match between the New England Patriots⁴ and New York Giants. Verizon FiOS customers in New York, New Jersey⁵ and New England will be able to watch.

如果你喜爱足球，看3D的版本怎么样？Verizon FiOS 1频道计划于9月2日直播季前赛，并通过3D形式播放。比赛将在新英格兰爱国者和纽约巨人队间展开激烈角逐。纽约，新泽西，新英格兰的Verizon FiOS用户将率先使用该3D技术。

Well, can't get to the gym to see your personal trainer? How about getting a personal training App instead. A DDC's MiCoach App can help you train to run faster, increase endurance, or even play a better game of football. Nick Bilton of the New York Times reviewed it and noticed that the App gave him some very personal attention.

如果你不能到健身馆去找你的健身教练，为什么不在家用一款个人健身的手机应用呢。DDC的这款应用MiCoach可以锻炼你跑得更快，耐力更加持久，甚至是足球踢得更好。纽约时报的Nick Bilton注意到了这款应用能够提供十分个性化的服务。

"Another interesting feature of the MiCoach application is the ability to tell what kind of sport you are training for. So if you are interested in tennis, or running or even cycling, you can tell the application this, and will train you specifically for that sport. The way it does this is to tell you if you are going too fast, if you are going too slow and as you are running it says speed up or slow down.

“它还有一个有趣的特点就是，这款应用可以自动辨认出你正在训练的体育项目。因此，如果你对网球感兴趣，或是跑步，甚至是自行车，你可以直接在这款应用中输入。这款应用还会提示你的进度，如果你太快了或是太慢了，它就会提示你减速或是加速。”

MiCoach is just available for Blackberry, Iphone and Ipod Touch. For information of all these stores just log on to the technology page at abcnews.com.

这款应用MiCoach现只能应用于黑莓，iPhone和iPod。详细参阅以上信息请登录abcnews.com的科技页面。
