由於耶誕節快到了，雖然美國有 Black Friday 及 Cyber Monday 的促銷，但由於我們人都在台灣，還是較不容易享受到許多優惠活動。然而，近期內身邊有2位朋友內一個要去香港出差，一個要去日本度假，由於最近港幣一直在升值、日幣一直在貶值，而我又想買一台 iPad Air 2，所以花了一點時間試算該拜託哪個朋友幫我買 iPad Air 2 比較划算，或是直接在台灣買就好了。
依據我的經驗，在台灣買 Apple 的產品真的都比較貴，所以我之前 Macbook Air 就是在日本的大阪 Apple Store 買的，比在台灣便宜4000多元 (詳細文章請看日本買 Macbook Air 省很大 ，所以這次要買 Apple 的東西，當然也不會想到要在台灣買。
此次會想在香港買的原因，除了因為港幣升值外，另一個原因是在香港購物是免稅的。然而，在日本買東西，只要金額達到 5000 日元就可以退 8% 的消費稅 (2017年4月開始消費稅將調為10% )，一方面門檻低，另一方面是在日本的 Yodobashi 或 Bic Camera 用 Visa 卡刷卡付費，另外享有 5% 的優惠 (即可打 95折)。因為如此，在日本買 Apple 的產品東西往往比在台灣便宜很多。
這次花了一些時間，也來試算了一下在台灣、香港、日本買 Apple iPad Air 2 的價格，結果仍是在日本買最便宜 。
以 iPad Air 2 128 GB WiFi 版本 來比較的話，在日本購買比在台灣購買便宜了將近 2900元，大家是不是跟我一樣覺得省很大呢?

Great design and stylish look. But according to the info on its website at http://www.masterpal.com, it is not available in Taiwan yet. It is only available on Amazon in North America and Europe. What a pity!
Q1: 在日本的 Yodobashi 或 Bic Camera 買比在 Apple Store 買更便宜，是真的嗎?
答: Yes. 因為講上述的兩個電器連鎖購買蘋果產品，除了可享有 8% 免稅外，如你用 Visa 信用卡付費，還是打 95 折，的確是比較便宜，但根據我們請日本朋友打電話在京都及大阪詢問這兩家店的結果，店內都沒有提供「美式鍵盤」的機種 ( 美式鍵盤就是我們台灣所使用的鍵盤種類)，僅提供「日式鍵盤」，而由於「日式鍵盤」的排列方式與「美式鍵盤」排列方式不盡相同，我不建議為了省這 5% 的折扣還要重新適應一些符號鍵的位置，除非你是有在使用日文的朋友們，就可以考慮看看。而在 Apple Store 的Macbook Air (及 Macbook Air Pro) 都有提供「美式鍵盤」，且現場都會有庫存，因此建議大家在 Apple Store 購買。而關西的 Apple Store 就在大阪的「心齋橋」。
I have been always blown away by the rapid development of IT technology. Now the wireless charging technology has been on everybody's lips and is in full swing.
However, what's so good about wireless charging technology? In my opinion, the best part is that we can charge our mobile phones without cables connection to the chargers. We can just put your mobile phone on a panel or a pad and then it's charging. So if we can put one wireless charger at home and the other one in our office, we can charge our mobile phones as easy as 1-2-3. Whenever we are not talking on the phone either at home or in the office, we can just put our phone(s) on the charging pad or panel, and the mobile phones are charging. We don't have to worry about any low battery problems. Most of all, we don't have to bring any cables when we commute. Hassle-free!
But do all the wireless chargers look similarly dumb? Not really. There are more stylish and innovative wireless charging products on the market now. Take this "wireless charging lamp". No doubt it's a lamp. You can adjust the 4-level light intensity on the touch screen. Very practical, useful and stylish. Most of all, It is also a Qi-enabled wireless chargers. Personally, I like it a lot. What do you guys think? Now, this wireless charging lamp is also one of our most popular products. I'd like to recommend this product to all of my friends who are IT gurus out there. Maybe you will like it as much as I do.
