西门子SX1“侧键”设计的用意

云知道

7月30日我正式宣布加入SX1待机族 。
为了表示我的决心，特花了三个小时翻译了zq2128 (北京社区)发的《Symbian DevZone - Siemens SX1 Developer Opportunities》，因为E文一般，靠着"金山词霸"才翻译完，有错见谅并请指出，谢谢！
此文主要讲SX1的"侧键"设计的用意，我本来也是莫名其妙，认为是一大弊端，现在才明白了，才开始喜欢这种设计了 。希望读完你也有同感 。文见下：

Series 60, with its contacts database and call logging features means that dialing a number from the keypad should now be an infrequent activity. As a result it is likely that the keyboard on a Series 60 phone will be used far more for text entry than number dialing. The control of Series 60 is primarily through the joystick and soft menu keys, which almost certainly influenced the design of the Nokia 7650 with its shy little hideaway keyboard. As we have already noted in an earlier article (reference) the Nokia 3650 keyboard was designed around the Series 60 navigation buttons that resulted in the circular numeric keypad. Siemens with its SX1 have gone even further and thrown away the rulebook to create a radical new layout that sees the keyboard moved up to sit either side of the phone抯 display.
因为Series 60拥有联系人数据库和拨入拨出电话记录使得直接在键盘上输入电话号码成为不常发生的动作 。这样的话，在一个Series 60的手机上用键盘来输入文字会比输电话号码要多得多 。对Series 60的操作主要是通过控制杆和菜单软键来实现的 。Nokia 7650显然就是受到了这种影响才设计出了隐藏于滑盖下的小键盘 。我们还注意到更早些的Nokia 3650把数字键放在了围着Series 60浏览按钮的一个圆圈上，就像古老的电话机 。Siemes SX1则走得更远，打破规则创造了一种很先锋的把数字键放在了手机显示屏幕的两侧的"侧键"布局 。
According to Oliver "Oz" Zechlin, Global Marketing Manager for Application and Services for smartphones the SX1 is positioned as an aspirational flagship product within Siemens mobile phone portfolio. "It is the very first Siemens phone to combine built-in camera, video player/recorder, 65k TFT color display, MP3 player and FM radio with an unique natural loudspeaker in one," Oliver said. "We hope that the SX1 will be a fashionable object of desire. It’s aura is powerful and we believe that in design terms SX1 is outstanding and offers a highly innovative side-key concept which increases the speed and convenience of use."
依据Oliver Zechlin（Siemens全球手机应用与服务部市场主管）的观点，SX1被定位成一个有望成为Siemens手机部门的旗舰产品的智能手机 。他说：“这是第一款把内置相机、视频播放器、视频摄像机、65K TFT 彩屏、MP3 播放机、FM 收音机和自然语音扬声器组合于一身的Siemens智能手机 。我们希望SX1成为大家渴望追寻的时尚目标，这种愿望很强烈，而且我们相信SX1设计团队做出的这个突出的、很具创造性的将数字键放在机身两侧的"侧键"设计将使人们能更快更方便的使用手机 。"
Creating a new design has its pitfalls, the obvious one being that of user acceptance. New keyboard designs, particularly given the experience in the PC world where several attempts have been made to offer better alternatives to the QWERTY keyboard, have been largely unsuccessful in the past. Siemens are aware of this as a possible issue. "We have conducted extensive tests on the user interface," Oliver said. "The first thing our tests illustrated was that people are curious about the design and they want to handle SX1 to try it out. Our test results have shown that people easily get used to the new concept and there is a high acceptance for the new keypad design. Of course not everyone likes the design but overall we believe we have achieved that all important ease of use for our customers."
