iPod touch Application wishlist/Q&A

[chicagodrew]

Just wanted to start a general thread for applications that I wish were on the iPod touch/iPhone. I bet developers are already working on a bunch of these, now that these devices have been unlocked, but in case they need some more ideas here it goes.

If any of these already exist, please point them out to us. We can all learn a lot from each other here.

1) Beatbox over Music - While I suck at TTR, it gave me this idea: play/record drum and percussion beats over a song on your ipod. (Not sure if the hardware can support this).
2) Safari:Open in New Window - on long link touch, instead of popping up the URL, open link in new window. Even with Wifi, it's slow to do the "back" button (reload page), so it'd save a bunch of time to just open new link in a new window.
3) Screen capture of a video frame and save in photos/background.

Well, that's about all I've got right now. A big thanks to all of the developers out there. It feels a little like when the PalmPilot was first released!

my main wish is for something that supports flash over the internet, so i can stream videos (through flash)

stream music to airport express
stream Internet radio providers that appear in iTunes - with the starbucks facility to buy the tracks your hear.
Drag and drop app loading via iTunes

It has this feature already, in a way. Lauch Safari. Tap the icon in the lower right corner. You can add pages there.

I agree with surferfromuk, I really want airtunes...
Also flash and google video.

I want a program that you can drag the app icons around without having to play with code.

That'd be nice.
