Today's a big day for Apple so we'll throw them another bone--just one more.
Sure, all iProducts look flashy and great, but the true beauty of Apple's success over the past few years lies within their understanding that consumers/users appreciate the "experience" and are quite design/tech savvy as of late. Apple (who has grasped the fact that users, however idiotic they may be, don't actually like feeling stupid) delivers an unbelievably high-performance, yet easy-to-use device. Competitive tech-brands are quickly following suit, riding those coattails, and putting the user first.

I really like the hard drive "Brick" by Ora-Ito to the left of your pictures. A really nice product easy to relate to.
C'mon guys, Apple does not own simplicity and ease of use more than Philips, Kodak or anyone else. I have a LaCie Lego drive because it's cute, not simpler to use than anyother. The Wii is an amazing product all on it's own with grownbreaking interaction models that have nothing to do with what Apple has done.
