What would your fantasy TP3 be like?

Since HD2 has gone to TMo time to dream up a new Sprint TP3
Using the existing(and not over the top-translation :actually possible/probable and HTC-like) parts what would be your TP3 be like?

UPDATE: the added/removed/modified things will be in this color, original post will be in old, keep suggestions coming and WE TOGETHER WILL BUILD A PERFECT PPCGEEKS TP3, please remember to make sensible and HTC-like suggestions(no 16core 5Thz cpus please)

Here is mine:
01) Qualcomm 1.3GHz QSD8650A or dual-core 1.5GHz 8X72

02) 2GB RAM (DDR2/4), some feel that 1gb would be more than enough

03) 1GB ROM

04) 4.3" WXGA (1280x768 ) changeable(to play old games) resolution (keeping 5:3 as TP2) capacitive with
multitouch(but including capacitive stylus)

05) (if possible/needed(depends on qualcomm set above)) dedicated 3d accelerator(like nexuschips or NVidia ION 2)

06) 1gb internal storage(dont see need for more just get better microsdhc), some voted for bigger
internal storage(up to 64gb)(which will kack up the price significantly)


07) Slide out keyboard from TP2(why improve on perfect?) click-tiltable to 90

08 ) 5mp(why have more on mobile device?) camera with Carl Zeiss optical lens and slide cover(tired of smudges on
lens+time to improve on HTC's notorious bad optics) with ISO 1600 setting(and working this time)
and 720p minimum video recording

09) Dual LED flash (flashlight is back!!!)

10) all the usual(gps, BT 2.1+, WIFI, light/prox/stylus sensors, 3.5mm jack, microSD slot(up to 32gb))

11) microUSB connector(instead of mini), many of us have craploads of mini USB cables/charges and
voted to keep miniUSB, unfortunatly microUSB is a standard now so i doubt HTC will make any more miniUSB
phones


12) same dual speaker and dual mic setup as on TP2(again why mess with perfect)

13) Optional PICO projector (a la LG Expo), again - optional and will not add to price or bulkiness of
main unit, dont want it dont buy it, but nice to have that option for those that do


14) thinner than tp2(i am sure it is possible)

15) front facing 1.3mp camera(for US as well)

16) Dual boot Android and Windows mobile 7(these specs meet the requirements i think) - no HTC Manilla but the rest
of HTC stuff(player/weather/youtube)

17) IR with good range(miss that from HTC Wizard- makes good remote)

18 ) FM radio chip

19) Digital compass


20) Include in package(at least 4 of these): charger(car/house),headphones with mic and controls(volume and
audio), micro USB to USB cable, BT adapter for pc(for gods sake they are like $2 on dealextreme-include them),
minimal packaging with biodegradable(corn starch) bags, full body protection film(a la bodyguardz), Pleather belt
holster with dual magnets, TV-OUT cable



What would you add/remove/change (provide the number from above(or add if adding)).

P.S. yes i am killing time in airport
