Education market (secondary/college): 

1) vga socket and ability to retain touch calibration while mirroring to old 
projectors 1024/768 and even 800 by 600 that refuse to die. You just saved us a 
fortune on proprietary interactive whiteboards. I'd buy one alone for that.

2) Stylus friendly. By stylus friendly I mean ability to get fine control with 
a stylus for drawing and painting but with a finger touch based UI.

3) Flash (yes, I know old tech, but that is education) and Java JVM available. 
BBC iPlayer solution that is guaranteed to work in the future whatever the Beeb 
perpetrate. 

4) USB sockets aplenty for attaching keyboards &c

5) a Canonical branded note taking app with handwriting recognition that could 
recognise mathematical notation and shell out to LaTeX. Oh, and the Moon.

I would imagine it will have to be widescreen (have you noticed how most iPad 
users use them portrait?)

Well, you asked. Best of luck with it, that would be an ace thing to see.

cheers
