5-way d-pad & SD cards...yep I agree. I can live with the keyboard since it gives me a screen larger than the Treo's in a form factor smaller than a G1.



Other items that I miss from my 700P:

- Copy text in *any* app
- Browser: page optimization, download images and files from the web
- Email app: Select all, mark all as read, delete all, empty trash, auto delete old files from trash, and time windows for email polling (and when not to)
- Homes screens...like those provided by TakePhone, DialByPhoto, etc.
- Notification light...with Butler
- Filez
- Real global search for local data
- A decent MP3 player
- A decent video player
- Tank-like build
- Huge battery


That said, the non-standard headphone jack sucked, the phone was a heavy brick, the screen was tiny, it crashed all of the time, and the OS was incredibly stale and tired. For everything I miss, there are 2 or 3 WebOS features that I love...and I am hopeful that new software will address almost all of my concerns...except for that D-pad and the SD card slot. I will always miss those.
