- A barcode scanner (using the camera), coupled with a shopping list.
- A freehand scanner (again, using the camera) that lets you scan documents by sweeping the camera over them (would require some nifty auto-stitching software, but hey! if Geiger counters are allowed...)
- A life recorder (as in that Engadget article), using camera, microphone and maybe a BT GPS. Would really require 1TB SD cards, but we can start with what we have already. That freehand document scanner would come in handily here as well.
- A PIM. Obviously...
(and don't ask me what I want in a PIM; just make one and I'll tell you if it's a good one)
- An app that records from the FM radio for later playback.
- Decent video drivers (I want to be able to watch 800x480 video at 25fps! I paid for the blasted screen, dammit!!!!)
, but I'm half serious.
- A filter on ITT to keep all those whiners about PIMs and video drivers off the forums.
