So let me see...

Touch upgrade:
email is good, 4 other apps, meh EDIT: email is good and notes is good, 3 other apps meh. I was constantly putting notes in the calendar.
and why the $20 upgrade?

ATV:
Not for me. None of those capabilities interest me if I have to buy proprietary iTunes shite. It only does what TiVo does with some extras And it STILL isn't a PVR.

Air:
LOVE it! Surprised at the price of the SSD but shouldn't have been. That's expensive stuff. Love the touch screen. How cool would that be... turn on your laptop and it comes on NOW!

Time Capsule:
Thought it was VERY cool until I found out it's just for backup and can't be used as NAS. Stupid.

iTunes News:
meh
