A Year Later: iPhone Loves and Wants

Two words...

Copy-Paste


Seriously, why is it so hard?

That's only one word! But seriously, copy paste is a huge function that is so simple to do. Even my RAZR has copy paste.

It's fun!!!

Why would anyone think that trying to spoof any sort of identifer in this day and age --all things and agencies considered-- would be a good idea?

For pure fun. I have my own personal reasons for spoofing my number 😛

But for the most part, it's the only way I can call people and truly be anonymous.

Let's face, sometimes it's just something you need.

Here's what I would like to see in no particular order.

On current hardware:
tap and hold right click
make notes text editor compatible with txt and rtf
remove double tap zoom in/out
text highlight - double tap selects word, triple tap selects section
cut/copy/paste
press and hold backspace clears field
landscape mode for every app - esp text and email
consistent keyboard between apps
option to turn off zoom effect on keyboard
vibrate feedback option on keyboard
tasks sync
documents sync
.mac integration
exchange integration
entourage and third party mail/contact/calendar/task compatibility
mount to desktop like ipod - drag and drop to folders
ipod playlist performance in itunes
adobe flash support in browser
java support
wifi and/or bluetooth tether and sync
custom sounds for new voicemail, etc
search address book
numeric speed dial
voice recognition/voice dialing - mic and bluetooth
instant messenger services
custom check for new email timeframe on iphone
video camera app
audio recorder app
keychain
send mms (picture/video messaging)
delete single sms (text messaging)
search entire phone
send email to entire contact group
create contact groups on phone
bcc in mail app
multiple recipient text messages

Next hardware revision:
3g
gps
no recessed headphone jack
sd card slot for memory expansion
easy battery replacement
lose the chrome bezel and make the back one color

I agree with pretty much everything said here. I would also like to add:

1. autofocus and flash to the camera

2.GPS, with built in maps so you can access the GPS even if you don't have network connection.

And as for SD card slot, I don't know why but Apple doesn't put it in any of their computers...which is really surprising. But that would be great even with 16GB of storage its nice to be able to swap out different cards with different files on them.

My BIG wishlist...

Here is my greedy wishlist (hey, that's why it's called a WISH-list)

But at least the basic stuff should be granted...

Changes to be made:

Basic stuff all phones have:

1. MMS capability
2. Open ring tones (any mp3 file can be used as ring tone or SMS/Voicemail indicator)
3. SD or microSD slot
4. deleting single emails and sms
5. copy/cut and paste
6. Removable battery & improved battery life
7. voice recorder
8. For the Camera: LED flash, auto focus, image stabilization, & Video Capability (30 fps)
9. FM radio

More Advanced features:

10. Integrated Flash and Java support
11. PDF Reader
12. Playlist syncing
13. To-do list syncing
14. 32 GB of storage
15. camera upgrade to 5 MP
16. 2 MP front cam for video chat with auto focus and image stabilization
17. Stereo Bluetooth 2.1 + EDR and NFC
18. Sharing of files/ringtones/contacts through Bluetooth
19. Send contacts via SMS
20. GPS with integrated maps and software
21. Wireless N capability
22. AMOLED screens with Higher resolution
23. 3rd party apps allowed to run in the background

Form Factor:
24. 25 mm shorter in size while keeping same screen size
25. 2.5 mm thinner

for $500 with a 2 year contract we should be able to get most of these features added on.

One simple thing

As well as the comprehensive lists above there is one simple thing which has bugged me from day one and must be extremely simple to fix... the ability to forward an sms

It so so frustrating to receive a message and have to re-write the whole thing in order to send the message to someone else!!

Thats what I miss about my BB, could forward texts as emails or texts & vice versa, was very useful at times

Yeah I agree with that...that would also be fixed with copy&paste. So either one of those features would be nice.

I would like to see maybe a battery that we can change out ourselves?

It would be nice, but it seems unlikely, since none of the iPods has a self-service battery. In fact, the Mac Pro is really the only product Apple makes with any notable level of user-serviceable or upgradeable parts (at least as intended by Apple), so it doesn't seem to be a high priority in their designs.
