Your #1 Most Wanted Next Generation iPhone Hardware Feature

[SOV]

a 1 GHZ processor above all. Next would be a better battery.

I don't get all the clamoring for 1GHz.

Apple builds their phones for performance, and we know the performance will increase this year based on the competition. But a figure like "1GHz" really doesn't mean much when you're talking about an iPhone. Apple builds the new phone with the software and makes it perfect and an industry leader, they wouldn't release a phone that doesn't have on-par performance with the market, and Apple is a company that does not make phones for a spec sheet.

You might see HTC, Samsung, or LG making phones with crazy specs that would be unneeded with proper hardware optimization, but that's because they want the purchases from "spec sheet buyers".

64GB HD. Want to finally be able to justify getting one so I can ditch my iPod.

The previous processor in the 3Gs actually ran faster, but because of battery they underclocked it. I'm just saying i want a faster processor and a battery to support it.

Camera Flash would be nice. Has anyone seen the camera on the HTC HD 2, that camera is niiiiiiiiiice!

Replace the current battery with a dilithium crystal. It'd be nice having enough power to last 150+ years.

Don't you know, there already is one inside every iPhone. 4.0 enables it. hahaha I wish

the greatest feauture would be. to hide a hidden blade into its usb section > and have a app that releases the blade.

I want a faster processor and a orientation lock a la iPad. That one thing is complete genius.

After reading anything I can find on TiPB re iPhone 4.0 and projections on new hardware features, I think the one new hardware feature I would actually use would be a decent camera with flash. My 3G is just about perfect for my phone and music playing requirements.

Cheers,
Steve

Well HD is at minimum 1280x720, so no you won't get an 'HD' screen, but you will get a very high resolution screen for a phone at 960x480.

the notification light would be cool. they should do something similar to what they already have on the macbooks with the sleep indicator light. If they could some how implement that into the earpiece part of the phone that would be awesome.

+1 for notification in the earpiece. It actually seems like something Apple would do. After watching the MacBook pro video on how much work went into the notification light, it sounds like putting the notification there so that it isn't visible when it doesn't have anything to notify us for.
