  • 4-5" display (higher resolution welcome but very unlikely for Fremantle at least).
  • Fuller QWERTY keyboard (or no physical keyboard and a return of the stylus one, but that's also very unlikely).
  • Full size SD slot, accessible externally.
  • Mini-USB.
  • Full size stand.

You can get 1024x600 (or 1000x600, same aspect ratio as 800x480) in pocket-sized LCDs these days, see for example the Sony UX280P or the Sharp Netwalker (which aren't pocketable for other reasons).
