 Some of the features I would like... feel free to add on more features
you would like, and suggest some models. There is one coming out
called the HTC X7500 (HTC Athena). The only thing I don't like about
the X7500 is the hard drive... I would rather it only use an expandable
memory slot to reduce the size of the phone.

slide out or flip qwerty keyboard
vibration
speakerphone
call recording
touchscreen
camera (ccd vs cmos, lens)
bluetooth 2.0
wi-fi
built in gps
display (640x480 minimum)
expandable memory
400mhz or higher processor

would be nice...
radio transmitter to play mp3s in car

The IPAQ 6515 has most of this, but 312MHz processor, Bluetooth 1.2, and no
wi-fi.

Can you have multiple laptops connect to the internet via Bluetooth
1.2? BT 2.0?

If you will let me endulge in some more daydreaming...
- VOIP over the G3 internet, so I can dump the cell plan and have
unlimited calling (I think a network controller just had a heart
attack)
- unlocked
- hsdpa
- 3G, with 3G sim card
- google for free outgoing sms
- do wireless stereo headphones exist?

Gosh... doesn't it want to make you wait until these things become
available? (I think a marketer just had a heart attack)
