Ideal "MACDonald's" Combo Meal

I'm an outlier for sure. My ideal combo excludes the iPhone because I rarely make phone calls and don't want to spend $1000/year for the privilege but I do have:
1. iPod Touch (4 years now makes it <$50/year).
2. iMac (good ergonomics and I live at computers).
3. MacBook Air (I've actually got a Pro, but in an ideal world I'd like to get along with an Air).
I've used my wife's iPad and basically hate it.

Not having an iPhone & hating your wife's iPad? Yah, that'd definitely put you in the minority 'round these parts.
You can go for dessert, but it must be an accessory or peripheral device.
No Time Capsule as dessert; got already twice some severe stomachache. Never "eat" that again. Maybe an Airport "Expresso" or better: eat the combo in front of Apple TV
By the way, bizarre polls are en vogue this time of year. Didn't you know? But we'll save that for the PRSI forum.
Well there is no denying that! I'd personally go with a Mac Pro and an Air in addition to the iPhone, if I had the cash. Then again I'd actually utilize the Pro. An iMac would be great too.
My signature pretty much says it all. The three i's (iMac, iPad, iPhone) plus the TV. I also have a Windows (shivers) laptop for school (not my choice), but when I'm out in about three years, both that and the iMac can be replaced by whatever notebook beast Apple has then.
See, if I were going for irrelevant posts that still fit into the metaphor, I would've gone with "2 apple pies for a dollar!"
... I'm curious as to what everyone's perfect iPhone combination is, so "yes," you can supersize the combo (this is your splurge meal for the week.)
I'd love for people to vote & then post their combo & why that suits their needs best. [Remember, a combo usually includes 3 items!]
Don't forget dessert!
My perfect combo starts off with a 64GB iPhone 5. Gotta have as much storage space as possible for keeping files around for offline access in this dream combo.
The next item in my combo has to be a notebook, gotta go for a retina MacBook Pro with the fastest CPU and all the RAM and storage I can get crammed into it.
And top it off with a 64GB iPad, but I'd go wifi-only on it. I'd just get a personal hotspot feature set up for my phone, and use it to get the iPad online from anywhere. Oh, and the notebook as well.
An Apple TV is a nice little dessert here, since all three of those devices can do video-out to it.
