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.

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.
