A big problem is over-the-air download in the background. I would like my podcasts to be synced with my phone using the wireless connection instead of having to sync it with the computer.

I'm waiting for tricorder phones. Think about it. We have the technology to:

* Make infrared devices the size of a pen.
* Make wallet-sized blood glucose monitors and other compact diagnostic tests.
* Have motion sensors in our PDAs.
*Take surface temperatures of items remotely.
*Sore and playback quality audio and video.
*Artificial noses that can detect chemicals and radioactive isotopes.

The time for the tricorder is near at hand.

I know I'd buy one.
