    Me too!

    iTunes (rhymes with Uytuun's) works fine for me. I have now got 2 days worth of music on it (probably not much for you pros, but plenty for me).

    I have never ever seen a 'phone with AIM on it.

    For hardware it needs to have sophisticated speakers and sound quality so that I can understand what the other guy is saying, because I am half-deaf, I still am unable to communicate with a mobile phone, or any phone for that matter.

    For the software, absolutely none, I'll program that myself :D It has to come with an assembler and a cable for access to the ROM chips :p and with a complete list of all the chips used in the phone so I can program them :p

    Firstly, I DON'T CARE about price! Because seriously if this phone does all of this I would buy it right now! :D

    My dream cell phone would have the following features:

    *Like some sort of super camera, 15 MegaPixels or so
    *Video Camera and Filming with great quality
    *An electronic road map built in
    *TV with ALL CABLE chanels built in :D
    *Able to work anywhere at anytime in the world with 100% reception status no matter the plan or network you're on
    *Email, SMS, MMS, Video transfering etc etc
    *Infared, Bluetooth
    *Home Theater quality sound
    *HUGE capacity, hmmm ... bout 50 gig or so :D
    * I-pod style mp3 player built in
    *Connection to a PROPER internet where you can download ANYTHING you want without a purchase cost
    *Full help support with the touch of a button
    *Games in case i get bored
    *Ummm, being able to make calls perhaps ... :D

    And LMFAO I just read a little bit above about someone who was talking about adding in an mp3 playa! LOL well ... I WANT ONE!

    Btw the Razor looks ugly :lol: BAM!

    First of all, I would like it to have a design similiar to the Nokia 6280(and here). It would have the following functions:

    • At least 500MB of memory (at least!)
    • Build-in Mp3 player (of decent quality! = good sound, etc).
    • Build-in FM radio.
    • TV-access
    • Bluetooth
    • Full internet access (when they can incode internet in radio signals, then they can bloody well give us full internet access on the phone in a near future - if not already!).
    • All standard functions such as mail, sms, mms, etc.
    Give me this, and I won't bother you 'bout wanting new functions in a month or two :D .

    P.S. I would (well :doh: ) of course also want the phone to be able to make regular calls!

    :lol: How exactly are they phones! They look too big to hold up to your ear so I'm guessing speakers or something?
