I don’t know about “lots more”, basically updates to existing iLife and iWork software, plus an add-on for the iPod.

No massive Plasma screens, no new iPod Shuffle, no new Mac Mini, no Apple PDA / phone / tablet.

Dont forget the FM iPod tuner which basically amounts to a “gee why should Belkin and the like profit from something we can do already.”
Not bad. I will try one out. Not as blatant gouging like the iPod sock but still nothing to jump up and down about.

The Radio Remote is tasty. The magnetic power connector to the laptop is neato.
Interesting that there wasn’t any form factor design changes to the new crop of Mactels.
