As for me: One i7 laptop (not ultrabook), one macbook pro (work), 1 7" ARM tablet, and 3 high-end ARM smartphones. I'm very sure that there are going to be a couple more 7" tablets in the next few months, either firesale 1st gen nexus 7's or 2nd gen nexus 7's.
I have bought 5 devices over the last 6-9 months for family members. In addition to the 2 Clovertrail tablets (which included the keyboard base, by the way, so you might as well consider them convertible devices) - I also bought 2 Lenovo Yoga Ultrabooks, and 1 Samsung Ultrabook. Plus, I have my own Dell XPS 13 Ultrabook, which I am considering upgrading with Haswell. Given the experiences so far, I will never buy a non-Ultrabook again.
On the phone side - I plan to upgrade my smartphone in a couple of months when I am due (Verizon 2-year agreement), and I am considering either the Samsung Galaxy S-IV, or the HTC One. My sister recently got a Samsung Galaxy S-III, and my cousin upgraded his iPhone 4 (which got a crack from dropping it) to an iPhone 4S. I'll note that he saw no value in the iPhone 5, and didn't want to spend the extra $100 in it.
