Navigating the virtual keyboard is much easier on the wider screen, and the e-mail, SMS, Notes and Calendar applications would be that much better with landscape support.
2iPhone Wants and Needs – 2. Missing Applications
I want the ability to edit or create documents, to browse for files or documents, and to save data just like a USB drive.
3iPhone Wants and Needs – 3a. Lightweight DataSync Application
Requiring the full iTunes application with its four processes and need for 75 MB of memory is almost criminal. Give us a small tool so we can sync our calendar and contacts from a second computer.
4iPhone Wants and Needs – 3b. DataSync Service
In the absence of a lightweight sync tool, allow customers to sync Outlook-based calendars and contacts to the .mac service, and create a way to synch iPhone applications with .mac. Id pay a couple bucks a month for that service.
5iPhone Wants and Needs – 4. Better WiFi Security
Throw in some 802.1x and PEAP support so we can join a tightly secured wireless network, IT gods permitting.
6iPhone Wants and Needs – 5. EDGE Radio Controls
I can turn the WiFi radio off individually. Why not the EDGE radio?
7iPhone Wants and Needs – 6. Better Accessories
I need a case that has a place to store the earbuds. Wrapping the cord around an iPod was OK, but now its my phone and sometimes I need to get to it quickly. And come to think of it, those earbuds dont fit me well at all.
8iPhone Wants and Needs – 7. Ringtones
OK, theres a hack out there for this. But I dont want to have to hack my phone just to make ringtones from my own music.
9iPhone Wants and Needs – 8. Battery
Having to ship the unit back to the factory to get a new battery is bad enough, but the rental fee for a temporary replacement iPhone is exorbitant. Work out a deal with AT&T so customers could rent a generic device, with a minimal cost built into the bat

To get in compliance with hands-free driving laws, voice-activated dialing is a must.
11iPhone Wants and Needs – 10. Bluetooth File Transfer
The Bluetooth radio is pretty limited compared to, er, every other device out there. Solve problem #2, and then this will be more critical.
