I really miss my 3rd generation iPod. I still have it, but it needs a new battery. I still would like to use it, even though I have a stash of iPod laying around... That's what started me into the fascination of Apple products though.

OS X in conjunction with a MacBook's Trackpad. Those two things are a match made in heaven. Find me another OS which utilizes an notebook track pad like that... ya' can't son !

I'll be adding the Magic Pad to this list when I get it as soon as I'm back in the States in a few weeks.

Macbook pro for the exact reasons you have mentioned. Iphone is good but its kind of deliberately gimped which puts me off. Can't install apps without Apples approval, doesn't support flash, bluetooth is restricted and until the iphone 4 it was lagging behind in terms of hardware for example no flash (the non adobe kind) or decent built in camera nor multi tasking until very recently. The experience and the software and how it all works is excellent though but the Macbook Pro and OS X is fantastic. The Ipod would come a very close second though, the saviour of Apple pretty much, however since driving I have never used it.

Completely agree!! Love my MacBook Pro, and my iPhone 3GS is a close second, just because it has the ability to do much more than Apple lets it :( my iPod classic/nanos do what they're supposed to as well.

Oh yeah...I have to say, as an overall favorite, the trackpad is my all-time FAVORITE! It can actually replace my mouse to the point that I don't care about the mouse when I'm going mobile. It's awesome!

17 inch 2 GHz C2D imac (5,1) with 3GB DDR2 RAM, X1600 (128MB memory) GPU - OSX 10.6.3
If you're going hardware product I'll have to say the Alu keyboard.
Sure it's hard cause most of Apple's products are just so good. And I love my imac so much too. But that keyboard is just so much better then the dust trap that originally came with my white imac. I love how the new (not new now though) keyboard is so quiet when you type. And with my small hands it's easier to type on. Weighs less. And is easier to keep clean. No dust. Sure I can't pull off the keys and clean them, but I don't need to. A good hard wipe and they are back to clean again. The best keyboard I've ever used.

And for software I'd have to say itunes. Most of Apple's software is brilliant but I like itunes the most. Sure a lot of people don't like it. But it keeps my music organised very well. Plays it very well and the itunes store just works. So for me it's my favourite Apple software.

The OS and the trackpad, go into your nearest computer dealer and try out the PCs trackpads…

My favorite is my 27" iMac. It is amazing. Then my next favorite would be my Droid Incredible. I know it is not a Apple, but it still rocks. LOL

Have to say my favorite is my iMac, it may be the older 20", 2.0GHz C2D, but it has never failed me, and was my first Mac, so it holds a special place in my heart. But I gotta show some love for my MacBook and my iPhone.

Seriously, my favorite has to be the G3 iMac/G4 eMac series of machines, followed closely by the G3 b/w. I love all-in-one for their compact reliability, and tower machines for their versatility.

Gotta say OS X. Especially after working on a couple of Windows machines full of malware in the past few days.

Can't stop at one though. Have to say, my iPad is my current favorite piece of hardware.

Hmm....I'd have to say in this order:
OSX
MBP 15"
iPad

My iphone is last because well, it's a phone and I have to use it. Everything else I use regularly because I choose to and love it.
