Hi actually I am an iphone 3gs user and I voted for none of the above mentioned improvement. I am not too techie so that might be the reason why I don’t seem to view these features as important. Anyway, here are my non techie reasons in no particular order:

1. The current screen on my iphone seems really sharp already. Sometimes the words on websites are quite hard to read in portrait mode as they can be a little small and so I prefer to read them in landscape mode. So will I do understand that with a higher resolution screen we can achieve ever sharper text and images, I figured that higher pixel count also would require more processing power to push. Also with bigger native screen resolution, we would require higher quality videos which would take up a bigger amount of storage space on the device. At this moment everything already looks very pretty on the screen and I can’t see a reason to push more pixels, use more power, waste more storage for a very small improvement visually.

2. I would like to see an improvement with the camera but not with the mega-pixel count rather I would prefer if they kept the count at 3 and double or triple the CCD sensor size. This will really help with the actual capturing of light thus improving picture quality in low light conditions as well as reduce picture noise.

3. I really like the idea of having a custom/personalize UI with unique wallpaper and themes but not at the extend of simplicity. With the current UI, I never have to worry about explaining how to operation the iphone whenever I pass my phone to a friend to play around with because it is so simple and intuitive. It is so easy especially when I am driving and need directions or need to view the available timing for the latest movie in town, I can just pull out my iphone and pass it to any friend in my car and have full assurance that they are going to be able to get the needed information without any sort of of training.

4. I would love that they introduce a better notification system but the one that I really like is the one that comes with the palm pre. Allowing a couple of notification to be viewed at a single time and with slightly more detail. If we can push reply right back from the notification it would be that much more awesome.

5. Multitasking, widgets and the likes really sap the battery and they don’t seem like a viable option. I really rather not have anything sucking battery life, pulling or pushing data from the web, bogging down the internal ram, taking up processing cycle when I am not currently viewing or working with it. Rather the best solution is to have some main application multi-task and the others push notification when necessary. Which the Iphone already does. (on a side note if you really must listen to radio while drafting a letter might I suggest using lastfm app, there is an option that allows the songs to be pushed to safari which has multi-tasking capabilities and as such would allow to work on something else will listening to songs on digital stations. And yes ever surf the web, through third party applications like prefect web.)

6. I would vote for a better network but I am not located in USA and the current carrier that I am with is really quite good, call quality on the iphone is amazing and no issues with drop calls whatsoever.

7. Hopefully the next iphone would keep the same shape (yes I love my morphie juice pack air that much, only wish they would add an led light on it, in the next build.), have the same screen resolution, but have a faster processor with lower power consumption and a larger battery. Throw in wireless N, an FM radio and the ability to connect to my car stereo wirelessly and we are ready to go.

Oh and 1 more thing, if there was a simple way to switch to toggle things like wifi, location, 3g it would be most welcome. May be a “press and hold to switch” right at the status bar on top. Seems the most intuitive solution to this problem. Cheers.

and just saw this tonite: http://androidforums.com/computers/1333-can-android-installed-pc.html

When you give developers an open system to do whatever they want with.. they expand on the initial idea in directions you never thought about.

I have an iphone 3g. I love it. Its a lot slower than my friend’s 3gs, but I was unlucky to have bought it just enough before the new one that I couldnt upgrade

The browser is awesome, the ease of getting new apps is great… and the accuracy of the touch screen is bananas. but I want to be able to download and share my music over the web with all of my devices. None of this itunes gumming everything up.

I want to be able to share the music i have on my phone, with my car stereo, so i don’t have to keep plugging my phone in to aux every time i get in the car.

iphone is limited unless they figure out how to play nice with everyone else. For now, imho, the best phone is the iphone 3gs. next year though is anyone’s game.
