Sometimes reading rumours about the second iPhone is exactly like reading a wishlist of features people want. Whether it’s subconscious or not, the rumours do get us thinking about what we want from a 3G iPhone. In short, we want an iPhone done right. Here’s what we want to make the 3G iPhone faster, better and stronger.

• Cheaper. Sure, why not?
• Unlockable and Jailbreakable. I’m sure many people would like this.
• Better Battery. As long as it doesn’t run out while I’m trying to use it, I’m happy.
• GPS. Could come in handy.
• Improved camera. Don’t really care. Thats what I have a real camera for.
• Front facing video camera. Not needed. My current phone (Samsung A501) has a rotatable camera – it never faces me, and I’ve never made a video call.
• MMS and video recording. MMS seems more like a gimmic than a useful tech to me.
• Flush headphone jack. Never had a problem with the one on my Touch. No idea if the iPhone is any different.
• More storage. 8GB has suited me fine for Touchness. I doubt I’d need more in a phone.
• Cut, Copy and Paste. Yep. Sure want that one.
• Automatic 3G Management. How about auto switch from 3G to Wifi? Does the current gen already do that?
• Stereo Bluetooth streaming. I doubt I’d need that.
• Over the Air Sync. Might come in handy, but a cable is just fine for me.
• Better Reception and Voice Quality. I’d go that.
• A CDMA iPhone For Sprint and Verizon. Useless in Australia.
Now for my one addition:
• Text search in Safari. So many times I’ve been surfing on my Touch and needed to search for text on a webpage – wheres that function?

Friday, June 6, 2008 at 6:07 PMI don’t see Flash coming to the iPhone any time soon, nor do I want it – Flash Banner ads I can live without thanks – H264 is fine for video. Flash is a resource hog and has a habit of crashing randomly – not something I want my phone to do.
