元器件交易网讯  3月28日消息，据外媒报道，微软终于揭开iPad Office的面纱，只是发现大部分功能需要购买99美元的Office 365订阅服务才能使用。但是微软计划明天推出免费订阅一年的促销活动。

　　你所要做的就是拿着你的iPad去微软零售商店办理此服务，前50位用户完全免费。微软今天早些时候在推特上推出促销活动:

　　“iPad版Office 365来了。首批前50名用户3月28日起免费使用一年。”并附上了商店网址。

　　这当然是一个相当有效的方法让人们进入商店，尽管他们拿着竞争对手的平板电脑，甚至没有买任何东西。

　　外媒原文如下：

　　Microsoft finally took the wraps off of its long-awaited Office for iPad suite this morning, only to reveal that most of its functions require a $99 subscription to the Office 365 service. Even though you can get a discounted subscription through Amazon, $70 may seem pretty steep. Rest assured, Microsoft is planning to offer free one-year subscriptions to the service tomorrow.

　　All you have to do to get your free subscription is show up at one of Microsoft’s retail stores with your iPad in hand. The first 50 people to do so will get the sub completely free of charge. Microsoft announced the promotion in a tweet earlier today:

　　Office 365 is here for iPad. First 50 people to bring in their iPad starting 3/28 will get @Office free for 1 year.

　　This sure seems like a fairly effective way to get people into the store, even if they are carrying a competitor’s tablet and walking out without actually buying anything.
