| Even though I was underwhelmed by the keynote this January, I have to say that the single most important item here is the iPhone, with the AppleTV coming in second.

| The iPhone is of course the big buzz (and will make big money) but I think the Apple TV (and in a lower extend for the time being Airport Extreme) will do more for the penetration of Apple in the home.

| Well, if the AppleTV ever drops to around $100, I'll probably buy one. I think $300 is way too much for what's basically a stripped-down, crippled Mini with video out ports and some custom software. If I ever spend $500 on a phone, it will certainly be an iPhone. But I don't have any kind of cell phone now, and if I did I'd want a basic one (or maybe a more expensive one with a good camera built in, but I don't think there ARE any cell phones with really good cameras). I do WANT an iPhone, though. It's just damned cool. I've wanted a multi-fingered UI for years. But I really want it on my desktop. Maybe in a few years...

| I said iPhone, though the second biggest really is the new AirPort Extreme. Think about it: Since Apple launched AirPort, the device has been the same ever since 2000 or so when they introduced it. 7 years the same thing, just updated... ever seen that before at Apple? Even though, when you look at Apple and think of AirPort, automatically _that_ appears in your head, doesnt mean it shouldnt be re-newed, which is what they did a few days ago. Just a shame he didnt include it in the Keynote, btu I guess he had his reasons.
