After three days of excitement and updates, it looks like the Apple store has finally stopped pumping out updates.

On Monday, Apple launched updated iPad Air and iPad Mini models. I’ll try to go check these out when they are available at the Apple Store, but I’m not planning on buying on of these. My iPad Pro is still rocking away and my favorite device I’ve owned in a while.

Tuesday brought updated iMac. Sadly, the new iMacs are only a speed bump (a much needed one) and not a redesign. I had been waiting for an updated iMac, so I do have one of these on order and will report back. I am a little let down that they still have a spinning hard drive and lack the T2 chip. In fact, I might cancel my order and look at a Mac Mini and a display.

Wednesday brought us the long awaited AirPods refresh. I had been waiting on this update as well and took the plunge. I should be getting these next week when they ship and I’ll be happy to report back on what different about them. I loved the 1st generation AirPods, so I can’t wait to see what’s improved.

Will Friday bring us anything new? AirPower or a new iPod Touch have been rumored.

I’m planning on bringing coverage of Apple’s Event on Monday. It looks like my guess was wrong and all the other pundits were right. Still, we got lots of new products to work with this week so I’m not sad, just poor.
