Media Player -
Improve CODEC Library. Then I can leave my video IPOD at home.

Bluetooth
AS4.2 installs AS bluetooth profile...but if the BT adapter isn't
present when the system is booted, the profile dies and cannot consistently
be reinstated. Synching via cable works fine, but that's old tech.

PocketOutlook
Rendering of messages directly from ISPs is horrible. Over 50% of my
email shows blank. Third party apps have no problem showing the multipart
MIME or HTML messages. This has been the case since the earliest versions
of PocketOutlook.

Power
I know it's up to the OEMS, but can you PLEASE!!! standardize the spec for
the power/data cable. RIM's done this with the Blackberry (standard
MiniUSB) and it reduces clutter in the breifcase.

Sync Options
Add the ability to sync at least one memory card during activesynch. Then
we'd have plenty of storage options and not be limited by the OEM's choices
for system memory.

Configurations
Thanks for letting Pocket Outlook store attachments on memory cards. How
about letting PIE use the memory card for storage as well. Oh...can we add a
system option to clear the cache daily or weekly or upon exit?

Clock
I don't care which one we're using, the system clock app is fragile. I've
seen too many of them that are unreliable as travel alarms. Ask
around....everyone has had their PPC fail to alarm in the morning at least
once. This is getting better but still fragile.

You've come a long way....but there's still some distance to cover. Thanks
MS!

XV6700 uses stand usb connector. It is nice to only have one socket used on
my pc. Even the cradle has a usb connector on it.

I was going to post the exact thing, but for the PPC-6700 (same device,
Sprint version). Now I can find a quick charge about anywhere even when I
do forget the retractable usb cable thanks to the proliferation of devices
with the mini-usb connector.

I really hope this continues to be a trend.
