I'd say the only two items that are relevant to the current timeframe are the Apple TV and the Air. The Apple TV gets a bad rap in the states because there are so many other options to get streaming media (I'm thinking Roku). In canada however the Apple TV is a whole different ball game as it just isn't as easy to get digital content onto your tv. I know 4 people with them and everybody is in love with theirs. Sure it's locked up as all Mac products are, but there's always ways around that (
cough).
The Air I don't know much about. I guess it serves a smaller demographic than the other Apple products (my guess is that market it people who travel a lot, don't need too much power and have a nice bankroll). The Air is cool, but in my eyes it is the worst apple product in many years.
