What do you call the iPad in Arabic? Sorry, can’t help you there, but then neither can Google Translate, which transliterates whatever the iPad is called in Arabic into the English “Aye Bad”.

As mistranslations (of this BBC report) go, this is particularly serendipitous, confirming, at a nadir between the two companies, that Google’s sole purpose on this planet is to do evil to Apple and to annoy the hell out of Steve Jobs. Although not necessarily in that order.
