Agreed on GPS
I want a GPS very much as well. The sad part is by the time Apple comes out with it I'll probably have broken down and bought a great car model.
As a Mac user here's what I would want in my iphone GPS is the ability to plan a daily itinerary from my mac and have it synced automatically thru bluetooth.
So if on Tuesday I had to go to a meeting in Waltham, my aunt's house in Needham, the plumbing store in Newton and my italian class in Cambridge, I would simply enter those addresses in my mac and I'd go to the GPS and find them there.
The reason I want this is I type 80-100 words a minute on a keyboard so there's no way I want to spend any time putting addresses in a GPS.
I would assume (I hope correctly) that all the addresses from the Mac address book would be automatically synced to the phone and available thru the GPS.
Other useful features would be:
--The ability to easily answer the phone and return to the navigator by placing the call on hold. I currently am testing Verizon's VZ navigator on a motorola krazr, and I've found if I need to answer the phone or make a call, it exits the navigator and by the time I get back in I'm lost. Would be much better if I could place the call on hold for a moment with the navigator still running to find out where to turn next.
--Automatically inputting the state where you are as a first option when entering an address. The Verizon program keeps guessing Maine when I put in M. Then Maryland. Only after I type Mas through the cumbersome keyboard do I get Massachusetts!
