3. An espresso maker for those quick drinks on the road
4. A 6MP SLR digi-cam with wide-angle lens..You know cause I got new 8 gallon pockets in my pants
5. Oh it better run GTA3: Vice City
6. Air conditioning unit
7. A hedge clipper cause I need everything
8. oh oh!! And a mini-fridge section for my beer

Oh and make it smaller than the NZ90, but with only what I listed that shouldn’t be to hard

gimme built in GPS and bluetooth. Faster arm processor and more RAM. Maybe an additional flash card slot, SD. Like that will happen.

Why don't you just buy a capture card and a digital camcorder? All that stuff wastes enough battery life on camcorders alone.

A built in tv tuner, I don't think it'll be too hard to pull off. A korean company already made a cf card for the IPAQ.

1. integrated 802.11b and bluetooth. (What good a pda nowadays that cant connet to the internet natively?)

2. more useable ram. 32mb of total ram would be really nice.

3. a really good web browser. (landscape browsing, no page size limits, hires+, ability to log into stuff like hotmail, ebay etc...) Netfront is close, but the page size limit really is a problem, plus i cannot login to alot of sites presumamby because of 128bit encryption. Hotmail and Ebay for example.

How about a clone of the new Garmin device? GPS, hi-res+, bluetooth, 32mb ram. All of that. They've given up the lead in innovation.

Seriously, I would love to see:
- 64mb RAM, with 64mb usable!
- 32mb ROM
- integrated 802.11g (that's a big fat G!)
- integrated bluetooth
- form factor of the T series
- hi-res+ of course
- five way joypad
- tv receiver (which they are working on)
- a real web browser
- and all of this for under $600

Is that too much to ask?

Well, I guess I'm a sucker since I upgrade my PDA every 12 -18 months, call me a sucker, but I make it a tax deduction since I use is for work. So, I guess I pay 30% less than what I really pay for it, after the tax deduction - unless my math is wrong. A camera is not really important to me because the P5 I already have is a great 3.2 MP camera and it is small, and I could put the memory stick from the camera directly into the NX60. Great for taking those disgusting patient pictures.

There's one area that I think the Garmin will lag behind Sony. It looks like they're using the same type of thumbwheel on the iQue as was on the HandEra, and I definitely prefer the Sony jogwheel.

Were it not for that, I'd be just about certain that my next PDA would be a Garmin iQue. There are a few other concerns I have that won't be resolved yet. For some things, I want to see the programmers, SDK, for other things, I'll have to wait till the reviewers get their hands on them.
