I think this forum has actually been really fair to the IPhone, and for the most part optimistic about what it will do for the industry. It's going to be a nice device... but not perfect. There are definitely a few software things that Apple could (and probably will) do to make the IPhone a great device. Three off the top of my head...

1. Flash (even bad flash is better than no flash.) There's going to be a million teenagers buying this thing that will be pissed that their MySpace slideshows won't play.

2. Streaming/Downloading Audio from home. This for me would be the killer app. I don't need to buy music with the phone, but I'd like to be able to hop on any WiFi and get my audio from ITunes. It would make up for the relatively low storage from an MP3 player standpoint. I don't know if ORB works... but somehow I doubt it will.

3. Bluetooth Keyboard support.

I'm not concerned with how pretty it is. I do like the notion that it's easy to pick up and play with. My wife is scared of my N800, but I have a feeling she'd be right at home on an IPhone.
