A perfectly reasonable thing for Apple to do would be to buy foreign exchange options to hedge out the risk of currency fluctatuions, passing the cost on to consumers. So it'll cost a percent or two more in the price of a new Apple product, but that means Apple isn't exposed to risk of currency fluctuations. Having said that, Apple is probably a big enouhg company to just accept the risk itself and not pay for options to hedge that risk.
