1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
1. Timed delay for password security - be able to turn off phone without having to enter the password again. winmo gives you option - immediately, 5 mins, 30 mins, 1 hr
2. ability to show notifications when off without showing the message content - similar to how it works when the phone is on; the notification light as mentioned above is a great feature that i really like on my current phone
3. search in email and calendar. should this be kept out of universal search? i read a good comment from another member -
"Why would I want to search emails and calendars from outside the email and calendars applications?! Universal search is meant to search actual data usage items on device, things that actually have place holders like contacts, applications, and then on the internet: on Gmaps, Google, Wiki, Twitter, and more to come..."
a true universal search does seem a bit much. wouldn't the results be overwhelming if you had a lot of email and calendar entries? anyone with an iphone have any complaints about this? i would think it would be better if search was available within email and calendar but left out of the main search when you want to find something fast on the phone. given that i haven't used either - what do people think?
if palm is looking at expanding their search capability, hopefully they take this into consideration.
i'm still trying to decide between the iphone and the pre...so i'm trying to compare both to what i know which is windows mobile. it is amazing how spoiled with features i have gotten with windows mobile. sure the ui is terrible, but every feature you can imagine is available. i watch all the marketing and talk about multi-tasking, video, copy paste, etc, etc...winmo has them all.

customizable wave launcher, disable pandora notifications, better javascripts
Have an option to have the phone hang up by sliding the phone closed. Have I missed something here - I'm told the phone doesn't do this - seems obvious and doesn't every other slider work this way?
1. (Official) Customizeable Ringtones for Notifications/SMS/etc.
2. Ability to save images/videos/files/etc from websites.
3. Offer even lower display brightness settings (current lowest setting is still very bright); this should improve battery life further.

1. Ability to 'link' to a new contact. I had a person who I needed to add to my address book (in exchange which holds my personal stuff) and since I emailed them via Gmail they were automatically placed in my Gmail address book, so when I clicked on the email I could link it but only to an existing contact. The workaround is to sit there for 15 minutes complaining and then create a new contact (cards really helped here) and then link.
2. Email sizing - I would like to see smaller fonts (adjustable) or just 1 line name/subjects so I can see more messages on the screen at once.
3. Copy/paste from emails/web/documents. I believe if this feature existed it would make the phone KILLER for productivity because you can be in a web card, copy someones address, move to the contact card and place it real fast, and your spot on that card is never lost (unlike WinMo which is the only other OS that comes close to this ability). Today I found myself copying information from 2 cards into a contact card, and while it was impressive and fairly quick, I was still copying information from one source to another by focusing a card and memorizing names/numbers/addresses.

Top wishes:
1. Goes quickly to Verizon.
2. Goes quickly with GSM version to AT&T.
3. Quickly updates to 32 gig version at least as an option. 8 just isn't big enough. 16 would be "OK" but still not large enough for some- I'd pay several hundred more for a 32 gig version.
4. Gets native touchscreen typing.
5. Gets a much better keyboard.
6. Gets visual voicemail natively.
7. Glass screen.

It's a small gripe, but I do not like how when I plug my charger in, the phone turns on and unlocks. If I wanted it to be unlocked, I would press the button!

1) Improve battery life - there already is some progress with this using stuff like CPUscaling
2) Snappier OS. Seriously, it's great and all, but the lag time when opening new apps is kinda annoying, considering the competition. Sort of depends on whether you use the cards all the time or not though.
3) Support tethering (without having to root). -- since this is technically already available via known workarounds, I'll add one more to the list.
4) Enable video recording. Not that I use it that much, but seriously... it shouldn't be that hard to do. If the crappy Instinct can do it out of the gate, well.. you know...

The Photo app opens more quickly on Pre with webOS 1.1 -- check Palm's support pages for the release notes.
