Wouldn't video chat require that the camera pointed to the face of the camera? Wouldn't that make using it as a camera or video recording device difficult? I can just about guarantee that they're not going to put any moving parts on it. I suppose they could have two lenses for the camera, but I seriously doubt it. Actually, video chat would be cool, and I'd be OK if they replaced ALL camera features with it. I just don't get wanting ti capture 4 or 6 MP of information with a tiny phone-camera lens. The pictures wouldn't be significantly better than the current ones. If you want to take quality pictures or video get a camera or video camera.
I have my own list of things I want to see:
<ol> <li>Some scale information on the maps.</li> <li>The ability to view location pins for our own list of things (like a set of contacts or all contacts). This would be at least as useful as being able to see seafood restaurants.</li> <li>Some scale information on the maps. (Seriously, the maps would be MUCH more useful.)</li> </ol>

Actually, the dual lenses is the rumor. :)
Good point about being to have permanent contact anchors within the map app.

Here's a basic one: 3G.
Is that a done deal now?
Another: Dvorak Keyboard :)

Yes, the 3G is a done deal; that's why it wasn't mentioned.

That's a good list. I would move Flash to Would be Nice and move true GPS to mandatory. A couple of things I really want to see are:
Bluetooth headphone profile Bluetooth keyboard profile - I have an Apple Wireless Keyboard. I'd love to take the iPhone and the keyboard with me when I go out of town to take notes. I might not need to bring a laptop with me. Infrared - for exchanging contacts with other phones and so I can use my iPhone as a universale remote. More options in iTunes for syncing photos A bigger video selection dialog in iTunes Nike+ compatibility (I read this will probably be in 2.0) Flash storage adapter so I can backup photos from my digicam Integrated taser (just kidding)

Bluetooth Keyboard ... VERY cool idea.
Digicam integrated taser ... lol.
Updated with new features.
