I would love: ad2p, louder speakers, keyboard, mini-sd slot . . . wait, did I just describe the Palm Pre

I had a treo for many years and I was actually excited about the Palm Foleo. I think a iphone Foleo would be quite handy. I would take that instead of a slide out keyboard.

Still love my 3g

I've said it once, and I'll say it again... more tapered edges

More advanced battery (citing what they've learned from the MBP 17" refresh)

System on Chip (fresh off the grill at the PA Semi kitchen) - faster than iPod touch 2g, same architecture so nothing is made incompatible

Plastic case, or maybe carbon fiber. iPhonochromatic. Colors all around the edge (no more out-of-place-looking chrome ring)

New software update with better notification support, App Flow (cover flow for the home screen) and new Safari with better page retention (response to Palm WebOS)

OLED

I love the idea of iPhonochromatic. Colors would be awesome.

I'll add to the better notifications.

I'd love to see a hardware light like the Blackberry. Simple little LED light that blinks when you have a message (email, SMS or VM)

Ideally Apple could use different colors for the notifications?

Also, on the apps front... I'd love to see a "unread mail" box (or smart mailbox). As it is right now, if you have rules running on Exchange you need to search for the unread messages.

V card attachment would be nice as well.

Just thought of one that wouldn't surprise me at all:

A dedicated camera/shutter button to open/take pics instantly. Combined with sweet new camera hardware, this would really do it for me.

Now you mean by shutter and open like, a type of cover over the lens as some digital cameras have to protect the lens? Because I would like to see that, I'd say the current lens on the iphone is a little vulnerable to caked up dust around the inside edge and prone to scratching if not really careful.
