So far this year Apple has launched the MacBook Air, Apple TV take 2 and the TimeCapsule backup drive. It has also beefed up the storage capacity of both the iPhone and iPod touch, issued software updates for both, and released a pink iPod nano. It's also been busy on the software front, with a major overhaul of Aperture - its pro digital photo program.
Still to come, and expected imminently, is a Software Development Kit (SDK) for the iPhone, which will finally open it up to Apple-approved third-party apps.
More news as soon as we have it.
