Dear UT Starcom and Sprint, a wish list for the next PPC.

This is what I would like to see in the next Pocket PC, the 6800 (?):

1. Java, java, java: No doubt, one of the biggest annoyances of owning the best Pocket PC in the world is the absence of javascript. None of us can watch videos on youtube.com and the like, we can at least download flash player but that is another problem it itself. And we can't even find out about our account balances onscreen.

2. Close programs: This is more of a Microsoft issue, you can only minimize programs, not close them. Sure there are applications like Opera and Firefox that do a better job but if you can close a program on your desktop, you surely should be able to do it on your Pocket PC.

3. Remove Powerpoint This seems like a no-brainer, who really uses Powerpoint here? No offense but that is a wasted program because you cannot create new slide presentations and other documents, only exisiting ones can be downloaded from your memory card.


4. Compatibility if UT Starcon is going to make a great phone, make it uniform so other people won't get ticked off. The XV-6700 has Verizon's MMS Picture and Video mail but the PPC-6700 for Sprint does not (of course there is the program we all have downloaded but don't you think you should have something archived like Sprint's Picture Mail?). If they don't want to install MMS, then fine. But don't install MMS on one phone and not do it on another phone.

Anyone else have more suggestions we can share here?

yea, build to order. like have 3 form factors. let the customer choose his/her form factor, and then add the programs they think are necessary for them. kinda like a dell pc. u call and tell them what u want. how cool would that be!!?!?

Haha yea the phone is for business men and they need that type of stuff on the phone for the companies they work for......where as I just use mine to stay connected Im sure we can remove it......maybe..... Anyways I would say compact .net framwork 2.0, ad2p built in, mms, instant messaging, threaded sms, maybe a rotating screen similar to the jas-jar to protect screen and I think it just looks sweet. Thats about it.

*hardware lock
*more internal memory, both RAM and Flash (this is a give I guess but I thought I'd mention it.
*flip over screen would be good, for screen protection
*volume WHEEL, not a slide bar like it is now. hell, I'd settle with good old fashioned volume buttons
*bluetooth 2.0 (also a given I guess)
*higher res camera

I don't care about software, that's easy to overcome, thanks to sites like this. hardware is for life though.

hmmm... that much memory requires extensive knowledge in quantum physics that we don't have... unless the government isn't telling us something...

and we'd probably still complain that it's not enough :P
