:approve: Good topic.
I agree with most - even the stuff I don't agree with wouldn't deter me from buying it... However, my perfect pda yet still achievable: (damn the cost :) )
* 624 Mhz CPU
* 128 MB RAM, 128 MB ROM
*
Integrated 4 Gb microdrive
* 16 MB 3D card
and publicised API
* 480x640 4" screen (so real VGA is more bearable)
*
Sony Clie style clamshell design with swivel screen and miniture keypad with buttons for PIM and games. Advantage: more screen real estate - all the buttons on the other half of the clamshell.
headphone jack, integrated mic,
mic jack
* CF type I/II & SD slots
* BT 1.2,
WiFi 802.11g (so I can use 11g networks, even slowly)
* IrDA FIR
* 2200 mAh battery
* USB 2.0 host port (this would bring a new meaning to expansion - should require OS update to support more devices, like external optical drives)
Other features:
* Ability to charge via a PC USB port as well as the power charger.
*
Delete PIE :P
* OEM the Resco image viewer for use with pics and the digital camera. The MS image viewer sucks too much.
* Vibrating alarm (I'm deaf, the current alarms are 100% useless)
I know there is a lot of bulk, there, but hey... I restrained myself to what is available now didn't I?
