So, if you miss the initial notification, how do you know you have something new?

Keep it in your pocket or glance at the display.
If something is so important that you need an instant notification, probably best to keep the phone on you. If your a super important/busy/social person, you'll probably get so much email and other notifications that the notification light will be blinking most the time anyways.
Also, why would the flash not count?
Am I the only one here that doesn't want a light? I've used android phones with them and they weren't very helpful. They just told me what I already knew. If you need to know about notifications, set the notifications to repeat X times. If you leave your phone and come back, press the home button.
Most androids are getting rid of the lights so I doubt apple will pick them up.
All you people naysaying a notification LED would embrace it, call it brilliant, if Apple put it on the phone. But because they didn't, it's unnecessary.
Source? My Moto Droid 4 has one, the RAZRs have one, and the Galaxy S3 has one. All are the newest Android iterations from each manufacturer.Most androids are getting rid of the lights so I doubt apple will pick them up.

Do I think one should be included? It's not a requirement, but I would definitely love it. I've always loved the idea of the icon on the home button glowing like the MacBook sleep indicator.
No and don't even get me started this is my biggest annoyance with the iPhone. A notification light is essential.
