Do you have young children? Lego have not "lost it" as far as their target market is concerned (in the UK at least) - they are massively popular. And it's smart moves like the release of mini-figures at pocket money prices that are keeping them popular. I also don't understand the comment about the bucket - Argos lists 7 different lego brick boxes.
Apple certainly didn't handle the antenna issue well, but does that mean that they've lost it, and no further announcements are of interest? I'm very interested to see what features of the iphone4 (a retina screen?) reach the ipod. It could make a significant difference to the ipod as a reading device. Also, if they make facetime devices cheap enough, that could lead to a massive take-up of video calling - we shall see.
