Before 2007, I had never owned an Apple product. I had actually really preferred MS to Apple and was happy with windows for the most part. Now, I have all Apple products. 24" iMac, MacBook, 1 TB Time Capsule, iPhone 3gs and 3g for the wife. I imagine there are quite a few others that have made the switch after getting the iPhone.

That is so true with me, (not the wife or pregnancy part). I have always been a PC and Windows person. I started a few years ago with the iPod and then this year purchased the iPhone 3GS, and now just recently purchased the MacBook Pro. Apple just makes quality and the OS runs so efficient and clean. Eventually I want to get a Time Capsule.

I do think despite Apple's stellar sales with the iPhone and Mac they will see a decline in iPod sales. With so many people purchasing an iPhone there is really no need for a separate iPod anymore.
