TIME magazine has listed 50 Top 10 lists on their web site this year - 50! Surely an Apple product made it into at least one of these lists, right? Of course, we wouldn’t have posted this unless there was. Silly question.
Time’s Top 10 Gadgets (for 2010) listed not one, but four, Apple products in this category. The iPad took top honors (of course!), the newly-revamped 11-in. MacBook Air took third place, the iPhone 4 took sixth place and the new Apple TV took seventh (with a much improved form factor, capacity and functions). That’s much respect to Apple, and well deserved. You can see the entire list below.
Here’s what’s a bit awkward - the discontinued Google Nexus One beat out the iPhone 4 in the list. Earlier this year, Consumer Reports refused to recommend the iPhone 4 thanks to the media’s hype over Antennagate, so this may have had something to do with it, hmm.
TIME also features the Top 10 iPhone Apps (in above graphic), with Netflix, Groupon, and (Apple’s) iMovie being the top three spots. I think it’s awkward (again) that there were no games listed in this Top 10 list, especially with huge titles such as Angry Birds and Plants vs. Zombies.
