Sometimes it seems as if Apple just never stops coming out with new great products that can improve your life.

They started this trend back in the early 2000s when they released the first iPod. Although there were other MP3 players around at the time, the market was widely scattered and the storage capacity on those devices was nothing to brag about. No one seemed to be able to get it right. Apple’s iPod eventually came to dominate the market, and it is probably the biggest reason for their success to this day. A similar phenomenon occurred when Apple released the first iPhone. Many companies had tried to release smart phones, but none of them managed to catch on in a big way. The current smart phone market is thriving, but mostly because the other major companies learned from Apple and emulated their ideas. Finally, the current success of the iPad has shown that Apple is capable of accomplishing the previously unthinkable: they have created the first successful tablet computer. Every science fiction movie maker knew that tablet PCs were the future, but no one had been able to create a device that anyone wanted. Now that Apple finally has, we can only hope that the other computer manufacturers will improve upon the technology.

If you want to get in on this craze, then you might have wondered which of these “I” devices is the best one to purchase. Well, that all depends upon your own personal needs. The Apple iPod Touch, the iPhone 4, and the iPad all run similar software and all of them can connect easily to your Apple MacBook, but which one is right for you? Let’s take a closer look at the considerations.

The first “I” device you may want to consider is the iPhone 4. This is particularly true if you are in the market for a new phone. The iPhone 4 is the best iPhone yet produced. It has two cameras, and it will let you browse the Internet either via WiFi or AT&T’s blazing fast 3G network. You can store up to 32 GB of media files on it, which should be more than enough storage space. Even better is the price, which ranges from 9 – 9.

If you already have a phone that you like, but you still want all the benefits of an iPhone – then you may want to consider the iPod Touch. This device is extremely similar to the iPhone in nearly every way. Of course it doesn’t have a phone, which also means that you can only connect to the Internet via WiFi. It also doesn’t have GPS like the iPhone. Storage can go as high as 64 GB.

Finally, the iPad may be the right choice if you want something a bit bigger. This doesn’t have a phone either, but you do have the option of upgrading to the 3G model so that you can connect to the Internet any time you are within cell phone range. Like the iPod Touch, you can get up to 64 GB of storage space. This is the priciest of the “I”s, ranging from 9 – 9. However, sometimes you can find iPad deals.
