Which Apple announcement was best? (poll)
The spiffy touch-screen Nano? Movie rentals on your iOS device? Or do you think today's Apple event was one big snoozefest? Here's your chance to vote!

On Monday I asked you to vote for the item you most wanted to see during Apple's special event today. Nearly 30 percent of you chose "an updated iPod Touch"--and your wish was granted.
Others beat the drum (and clicked the mouse) for a new Apple TV and iOS 4 for iPad--both of which Apple also announced. In fact, the rumor mill got just about everything right; the only poll item that didn't become reality was a smaller iPad.
All this begs the question: which of today's announcements did you like best? Are you excited by the new Apple TV? The camera-equipped iPod Touch? iTunes 10 and Ping?
Now, I have no doubt many of you will choose "none of them." Haters! Seriously, though, at the risk of sounding like a fanboy, what exactly did you expect today if not some merely evolutionary product improvements? I think Apple served up a wide variety of interesting and worthwhile updates. (OK, I do have one major complaint: the low-res rear camera on the new Touch. Apple, you could have owned the camera market! That sub-megapixel sensor is just cruel!)
Anyway, vote in our poll, then head to the comments to talk up what Apple got right today--and what it got wrong.
