I think we should consider this one. I know we
have some issues with video right now, but for
GTA03 most of them could be solved. I would be
very nice to be able to send video using the
same jack we use to send audio. 5G iPods and
some other devices do it.
My 2 centavos.

3.5, definitely.
And continuing the earlier comment about Nokia - the N95 (and possibly
other models) has a very interesting 3.5mm connector that provides much
more than just sound.
If a 3.5mm headphones are inserted, it plays regular stereo. However it
also accepts the more advanced connector of Nokia's provided
headphones which also have a small console to control volume,
play/stop/forward/backward, etc.. That one has 4 contact points and not
3 like in regular stereo headphones.
It even supports video playback - there is a cable that comes in the
box and uses the same connector point to output several video types.
Sometimes the phone detects the plugged device automatically (I guess
if it supports some Nokia standard), and if it doesn't recognize, it
provides the user a list of options to choose from (headphones, tv-out
cable, music stand).
Just a thought...

There is some "co-existence" stuff in GTA02 and future products that
reduces this effect... the two devices warn each other to defer what
they had planned because the other device is using the air.
Agree about the extra battery issue, but I have to agree with Thomas
wired headsets no longer seem to be a fashion accessory in wide use,
whereas BT cyborgs are all over the shop like a bad episode of Dr Who.
