Apple takes kudos in Amazon Best of 2007

Apple has placed multiple times in Amazon's Best of 2007 rankings, the latter company has announced. While no Apple product was a bestseller, the MacBook Pro has been named the "Most Loved" -- highest-rated -- computer, while Mac OS X Leopard has been picked as the favorite piece of software. The 4GB, third-generation iPod nano, meanwhile, was the "Most Wished-For" product under Electronics, and was joined under the "Most Popular Gift" categories by the basic MacBook.

Some of the bestsellers of the year included Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows under Books, Josh Groban's Noel under Music, and Planet Earth: The Complete BBC Series under DVD. The top computer was actually an Internet tablet by Nokia, and the most popular piece of software was Microsoft's Office Home and Student 2007. Under Electronics, the biggest mover was Canon's PowerShot A570IS compact camera.

Was an internet tablet by Nokia? Odd that I have never seen this product, but tons of MacBooks, and it is the top seller. Must be somewhere other than Portland, OR.

Perhaps that tablet was for ppl in Asia or Europe. Goodness knows it's not a stat from the US. It could even be that someone stockpiled them. Anyone know how Amazon keeps track of this stuff?
