>From me: 1.) Support for *easily* configuring HSDPA connections (Telstra NextG for example) 2.) DVD Playback (I understand Fluendo will have this soon, although that is a "fluendo soon" which can turn out to be years :-|) 3.) Well integrated Wine, this is in the works at Bordeax Group and Codeweavers have their unsupported variant. 4.) An office suite that sucks less, I use MS Office 2007 at work and feel like i'm in a time warp when I use OOo :-|, I hope Larry's JavaFX GUI changes this :-)
Number 1 & 4 is something we can do within the community, the others are related to our distribution base being large enough for the relevant organisations to develop for our platform.
