你见过的最小的微波炉有多小?

Mr. Andrews, the managing director of GAMA Microwave Technology, said it is possible to “tune” the radio-frequencies to provide the best results with any small product. “It is possible to heat a pie, a burger, a cup of soup or tea in quick time,” he said. “There is also the option of powering it with lithium ion batteries that would make it completely portable, which would be a help to fishermen, campers or sportsmen.”

　　GAMA微波技术公司执行总监安德鲁斯先生说，使用者可“调节”无线电频率，使加热任何一种小食品都达到最佳效果。“它可以快速热好一块馅饼、一个汉堡、一碗汤或一杯茶”，他说，“它也可以采用锂离子电池供电，使之完全便携，这对渔民、露营者或运动员都很有用处。”

　　In spite of its small size, the product conforms with all the safety standards of a normal microwave oven, including protective walls and a door mechanism which kills the power when it opens.

　　这款产品虽体积小，但完全符合普通微波炉的安全标准。它带有保护壁，门上也有装置，当门打开时会自动断电。

　　The main drawback, with component prices at current levels, is the fact that the mini-micro would carry a hefty price of around $100. However, just as mobile phones have become cheaper, so the cost of production could fall as they are manufactured on a large scale.

　　这款迷你微波炉的主要缺点在于：以当前的零部件价格水平，微波炉的售价将高达一百美元左右。然而，就像手机变得日益便宜一样，该产品的生产成本也会随着大规模生产的展开而降低。
