At home I have a 15" MacBook Pro with the extra high-res screen and 8GB of RAM, which I use with an external display.
I also recently picked up an 11" MacBook air for travel, which was an indulgence, but I really love it!
My phone is an unlocked HTC Nexus One, and my servers run Linux.
Communication
Browser
Chrome is my browser of choice.
Notes
Coding & Development
I've recently become a huge fan of iterm2 instead of the default Terminal.
Programming languages aren't strictly software, but I'm a huge fan of Python along with the numeric computing libraries.
