i did the blackberry thing and java is still very limited. i love the flexibility and software options i have for a WM6 device. When I see the commercials for new phones with this or that feature, I can only laugh and say, I've had that for a while or that's no better than what I have.

CES09 is this weekend and I'm really hoping to see something in the future for US market cell phones. We all know korea is lightyears ahead of us so there's got to be something better planned for the end of 09 - something worth me holding on to my touch and not spending $600 just yet for a TP.

I only wish the developers hadn't left us for the pro/diamond. the number of rom updates has dropped to nothing. I love my rom for my Alltel phone but it was released in October. I hope I won't be using thsi same rom in October 2009 when I finally do get a chance to upgrade.

WM7 sounds nice but not that huge of an upgrade (from the little I've heard about it). multi-touch would be nice but its not needed. I'd like to see more voice controls - untrained - such as how blackberrys work. Their system is great. VGS screen is the new industry standard. Wifi and GPS are a must. FM Radio is optional IMO. complete web browsing is a must. I tried to get on a flash site today and it took an hour and never loaded right. Cameras at a minimum of 4meg with flashes and quicker shutter speeds. Never checked on this but I'd like to be able to print to an inkjet printer using bluetooth (I'd guess drivers would be an issue).

these are options available mostly now, just not always in one phone (TP coming pretty close I believe) But the biggest question is, what is going to be the next big feature? We wanted GPS on the Touch, fought hard and got it. Wifi is a maybe with an insert card but what is the next big thing?
