Say what you want but when I think of the last three apple innovations each one changed my life pretty significantly.
Running is one of my passions and this thread made me think about the first time I ran with my new iPod, seriously changed my life more then any device every had.
And changed in a positive way, it made running even more enjoyable and connected me to music that I loved even faster.
The iPhone gave me endless hours of enjoyment with the first few apps. Can anyone really say the pouring beer app wasn't' the coolest fucking thing the first time you saw it. I loved it.
Lastly the iPad. I am working on a start-up now and the iPad is finally the device that has allowed me to ditch my laptop and PC for demos. I can almost use it exclusively, it is a game changer.
Say what you want about greed and ego, but saying the products are "crap" just makes you sound retarded. There isn't a company in the world that wouldn't seal their batteries in a heart beat to have Apple's success.

3 product 3 homeruns, not because they look cool because they work.
