Default the best 2 features iphone needs!!

ok everybody and their mama are coming up with tons of crazy ideas for iphone. and dont get me wrong alot of them are great ideas. but man wtf was apple thinking when they missed these 2 things... PICTURE MESSAGING!! ZOOM ON THE CAMERA!! we paid out the ass for a new phone and we cant even get pic messages... maybe a marketing thing.. maybe that will be new features ppl all need so we will be forced to go out and pick up they next iphone? my shitty little samsung could zoom and get picture messages. even video messages... wow either apple is trying to get us or they are just retarded for missing the main features to a mobile phone. its like buys a laptop that cant surf the web.

I may be wrong but I don't think zoom is a main feature of a mobile phone for most people. Definitely not me. Picture messaging is a bit more plausible of an argument but most phones can send a picture to an email address just as easy as to a phone number. It hasn't been a deal breaker for me.

These two features do not come close to outweighing the real features I use daily and actually paid for.

And there are third party apps that allow the camera to zoom...

MMS is a Dead horse..

And, digital zooming sucks. Without an optical lens, you're always going to get crappier resolutions when you zoom in (maybe I'm wrong?). Not worth it at all. I would, however, really like a greater mega pixel count.

But digital zoom is better than nothing.

Default two features...and then some

I would love to see MMS, but I agree it is a "dead horse".

If I had to pick two, I would like to have video recording and voice dialing support.

There are many more features I would like to see also. Features like camera controls (night mode, white balance, zoom, macro and more MP). A photo light or flash would be nice. A voice record function would be useful. Expanded bluetooth support for object push/file transfer etc. is another.

All of the above features, except the more MP, I am used to from my old phone (SE W810i), but I still get more use out of my iPhone. I don't know how I lived without google maps, and craploads of space for full movies, just to name a few. Plus the wow factor from others when they see you using the iPhone is still pretty cool.

I agree. I got hooked on the iPhone for it's internet and storage space which were two of it's main focal points besides touchscreen. And now those have much room for improvement. The two new feature picks for me would be video record and message reminder. But if it has video calling... happy happy joy joy.
