That reminds me. I have an iPhone 3G sitting in my cupboard unused. I'm just not entirely sure what to do with it. I could set it up as an iPod touch, but I carry my iPhone 4 with me everywhere anyway.

P.S. I've been Mac + PC since 2001. Actually, mostly Mac since the mid 2000s, but when Windows 7 finally landed I figured I'd better get a Windows 7 machine (or three) to keep myself up to date. I tried installing Windows Vista on my MacBook back in the day, but that convinced me NOT to buy a Windows Vista PC.

30GB iPod Video 5G (Traded)

16GB iPhone 1 (Benched)
11.6" MacBook Air

So yea, a lot of them I don't have any more, and really only my Air gets daily use anymore. I stopped using the iPod a few months after I got my iPhone (and I got my iPhone late, and used last year) and then stopped using the iPhone when I got my HTC Surround.
 
First Apple product I bought was the original clamshell orange iBook. I thought it looked kind of cool at the time. 🙂 I still have this and one day I will have to transfer some pictures out of it. Has my daughter's baby pictures. Second Apple product which I bought but later sold was Apple stock. This is my biggest single financial regret. I bought 30,000 shares of Apple stock. This was when every Wall St people hated the company and Apple was trading at cash value of 4 billion. Yes, Wall St was giving zero value for all the Apple IP, buildings, patents, products, people, etc. This was how bad Apple was hated on Wall St. I sold those shares months later for about $3/shr profit. Those same shares would be worth over 10 million dollars today. Not in my wildest dreams did I envision the Apple of today. Luckily I also bought some small shares for my and mom's retirement accounts too. Those I held til prior to the release of the iPhone so I did score multibagger out of that.

I bought the original iPod and the followup. Both died from harddrive failure in less than a year. I bought the first Nano and the followup but ended up giving it away to my brother-inlaw. Next, I got the wife the original iPhone jailbroken to use on Tmobile. But it died about 3months later. I bought my wife iPad 1 & 2. Daughter uses iPad1 now and also has 8gig iTouch. We have two jailbroken Apple TV2. ATV2 are my toys and my favorite Apple product ATM.
 
160GB iPod Classic (video)

Always thought about picking up one of the Core i5 iMacs that came out last year, but never had the cash. I do like the 27" IPS panel they use for the iMac.

I tried to like that, but couldn't get over the 800x600 screen. The integrated WiFi was tres cool though. I was at a magazine sponsored party in 1999 and Apple had a bunch of people there with pre-release WiFi'd toilet seat iBooks and were walking around the party floor showing it off. That WiFi 802.11b support blew everyone's minds.

It's funny to think that was only 12 years ago.

Loaded Macbook Air 13 second generation
iPhone 4 VZW 32gb
iPod Nano (not sure which gen, it's a rectangle) 16gb

Getting when available:
iPad 2 AT&T 32gb

Getting when I settle into a new place:
A 27" iMac

The funny thing is that I have a Verizon iPhone 4 but I am definitely an AT&T iPad. The data plans for the Verizon iPad are terrible, and frankly, the higher AT&T burst speeds is probably more useful on a faster device like the iPad. Does it really matter, probably not, since I'll just be tethering it to my iPhone 4 anyway for $15/month (corporate discount).

Yeah the screen resolution was terrible at 800x600. Had to constantly scroll to see the full webpages. Sort of how it is now with browsing on a smartphone. The integrated WiFi antenna in the upper case was cool but I still had to buy $100 AirCard to enable WiFi. I still liked it because it had 6 hours battery life which was about double or triple of Windows laptop at the time. The thing was heavy but built like a tank. I carried it by the handle during my travels and used it as NES, SNES, MAME emulator on long flights to Asia and to store pictures and videos from my camera. It worked perfectly for that. It worked great as conversation starter with females as they often approached me in public places to inquire about it. That's when I knew Apple products attracted girls. 😀

That was also true for the white iBook in 2001. Pretty young things would come out of the blue to ask me about it.

That all stopped in 2002 when I replaced it with a TiBook. 🙁
 
1983-ish 128k Mac (no hard drive!) - I think this takes the cake for oldest computer in this thread so far
13" C2D MacBook Pro
32GB iPad
32GB iPhone 4
80GB iPod Classic (for the car)
4GB Gen-5 iPod Nano (for the gym)
10GB Gen-1 iPod and 512MB Gen-1 iPod Shuffle (for the dresser drawer!)
Airport Extreme

In th past, I have owned a C2D white MacBook (sold), a white 16GB iPhone, and a 500GB Time Capsule (dead).

Athough I used my ancient Mac in college in the early 90s, I was a diehard PC guy until I bought my white MacBook in 2006.

I also bought my dad a 32GB 3G iPad and bought my mom a 17" iMac (this was in 2006-7) and a 16GB iPad 2 with leather Smart cover.
