1) Include voice turn-by-turn nav software. I'll gladly pay for updates.

2) Better GPS - although I don't mind having an external BT one in my car. Hate how long the internal one takes to synch.

3a) A simple docking port - a home and a car version. For charging, speakers, and perhaps a standard kbd.

3b) A separate iPod docking adapter might be a nice touch. This would provide most of what I want - charging and speakers. Would allow the use of thousands of existing iPod docking devices.

4) Have the slide out keyboard slide out 1/2" more and give the numbers their own row of keys! Not having is a real PITA since there is only a left hand "fn" shift key. This would incidently probably allow for a right hand "fn" key as well - it would still be useful.

5a) For heavens sake - the screen is 800x480. Give the thing a powerful enough video processor to handle full DVD (720x480) resolution. And support more protocols while they're at it.


5b) Nokia might consider including pc and mac software to properly convert DVD's (vob files) to DivX (and support it) at various resolutions (the Media Converter download has some problems...)

5c) I'd happily accept a 1/8 increase in thickness to accomodate better video handling, perhaps just adding a more powerful CPU. With that much space they might even be able to add more internal memory (even 4gb would be nice),an additional full size SDHC (vs the miniSd), and a video out port. Or perhaps the extra 1/8" would allow for a better GPS.

6) V & H scroll wheels or touch scroll bars on the front or side of the case. Unlike the iPhone and iPod Touch, the recessed screen makes it almost impossible to use your fingers for scroll bars on the sides and bottom of the screen. Applications could assign desired controls to the scroll wheels. Of course, alternatively Nokia could goto a flat case/screen front like Apple.

7) Include PPTP out of the box. I really want to be able to VPN home and use rdesktop to access my windows desktop. Maybe just takeover and support the old stinghorn software and build it into OS200x

8) Include a useful Java out of the box. This would really get the business applications rolling. I have a bunch of specific business products I'd like to put on this thing and have no desire to continually cross-compile - or actually program on Linux for that matter.

9) Perhaps Optionally allow you to buy with Windows Mobile - or figure out how to get a .Net CLR on this thing. A removable OS card might be nice.

10) As for wi-max, I don't mind being tied into Sprint if I want phone connectivity, but still want it to work with public wi-max and wi-fi networks. Otherwise, I don't mind sticking with connecting through my own BT phone. In fact, I'd prefer it.

11) Simple voice command recognition software (don't need continuous speech).
