""o An Accelerometer would be nice - provide user defined shake/tap controls

o IR Port - turn the Neo1973 into a killer Universal Remote 

        Possibly use these two together in order to automatically switch to 
        Remote Control mode when you flip the phone upside down to point the IR port 
        at A/V Devices, along with a "Location Profile" based on GPS location preset

o Vibration Module - for tactile feedback from key press of touch screen

o GPRS/EDGE adapter - High speed internet option for when WiFi AP isn't available

o OLED screen - for decreased battery drain and increased visibility in sunlight""

These are probably the hardware features most highly desired by me personally; along with the current Neo1973 hardware, their addition would probably even get me to pay the outrageous "iPhone" price for this device - as it would allow for the convergence of a Phone, GPS unit, Universal Remote, Media Player, WWAN Adapter, PDA, and all the application hack-ability that comes with an open source Linux OS.
