81.Short wave radio would be nice too + antenna

82.Ambient temperature and other condition sensing

83.Multiple charging options eg. solar

84.Drop the camera or make it an optional module. The optional module should be worth the expense though.

197.Extensive polish of default software

198.hardware buttons moved to all 4 sides

199.High-capacity battery option with a battery position that will tilt slightly the screen like on most laptops.

200.Touchpad on the slide-out keyboard

201.Fully finger-friendly OS

202.They can take my ears as long as they leave the speakers !

I will not buy a 900 without SPEAKERS !!!!!

203.transparent interface? If you touch in an area that can show a control it shows (transparently). Next touch(s) let you play with the control. After a configurable interval with no activity the controls fade away.

211.ascii" "keyboard"

212.multi-user devices with a graphical login manager

213.fully open kernel and drivers to leave us the choice of windows manager instead of Hildonized crap

214.touch sensor that runs along the sides and top that can be used for a scroll wheel, zooming, and replaces the other buttons on the top. This would also allow programmable virtual buttons, like top buttons for gaming

215.the stylus must be killed, the sooner the better

216.I'd like some more documentation, perhaps on a CD or something, that talks about what the apps really do.

217.I wish we had 5-point calibration, with separate position & pressure.

218.With the stylus is stored, the tablet works in its default, "fat finger" mode, but then shifts appropriately when the stylus comes out to play.

219.one big screen that can be folded in half. the screen would be flexible enough to allow the use of buttons underneath it

220.smaller and no slide out keyboard,

221.accelerometer-controlled pointer

A poll would have to be separated into hardware changes vs software changes. The hardware changes will then have to be sectioned off again (input method, cpu, etc.). In my opinion, the software changes may be too varied to conduct a poll and may depend on the hardware changes.

We could divide it into:
  • Things we already have
  • Make it an iPhone!
  • Make it a MID!
  • High-altitude fruit-filled pastry shell
  • Software changes
  • Undying flamewars (May overlap other categories)
  • Interesting hardware ideas
BTW, Sachin, you missed my suggestion of an accelerometer-controlled pointer...

> What woud you realistically like to see in the N900?

My ideal would be to start with the 770, and then add the following:

1. Faster processor
2. More RAM
3. GPS
4. WiMAX
5. Transflexive screen

While I don't mind either way, I think most people would rather have an SD-variant than the RS-MMC slot, so change it to mini- or micro-SD.

No, I am waiting for step 5. I figure it can't be too long after Xohm comes online before the new tablet comes out.

With the speed at which Sprint is going I think you might be waiting longer than you think.
