21、uses “i”, no one knows whether it means Internet, information, individual or interactive, Thorne told BBC Magazines. “Even when Apple created the iPod, it seems it didnt have one clear definition（定义）,” he says. “However, thanks to Apple, the term is now connected with portability (轻便) .”adds Thorne.
