What do you think will make the N900 even better than it is now? What will you add to the device, or rather how would you design it otherwise?

I'm not talking OS-wise (AKA "I want it to run Windows 7 64bit!"), and I'm not going sci-fi (AKA "I want it to shoot lasers and have a built-in teleporter!") - rather, I'd like to keep it realistic. For example, I think it'd have been better if the N900 had:
  1. Bigger screen (the screen itself looks like its not using the entire "real-estate" the device's front can supply).
  2. The kickback stand should have been placed IN THE MIDDLE of the device's back, so when I open the stand and put the phone on the desk, and try using objects in the upper-right corner of the screen, the device would hold still and not move (especially if the keyboard is open).

1) USB that works
2) 1080HD video out OR 1080HD projector
3) Compass
4) Built-in printing so that developers include it in the menus
5) A little bit better camera (and better driver for the front camera)
6) Fix the "opt" issue

i would change nothing, this was the only problem for me and the belt clip nub from the aluminum pdair case i have on my n900 removes the stand instability.

Hmmm more things which I forgot to mention:

3. The position of the earphone jack: If earphones are connected, it is very uncomfortable to use the right side of the keyboard when open...

4. More keys on keyboard could have been much nicer - I write in Hebrew a lot, and Hebrew has more letters than English, which in addition to the limited amount of "letter" keys in the keyboard, makes the Hebrew keyboard-outlet very confusing at times, as it arranged in a different way on a "normal" 100+ keys keyboards used in computers...

This actually could really differ the N900 from the iPhone, as Apple does not allow porn applications to be uploaded to the app-store (because Steve Jobs is a-sexual ), but again, I'd like to keep this discussion about HARDWARE, rather than software.
