So agreed (with GPS of course).

And bump the LCD resolution up to at least WVGA so it can be used to watch HD movies and surf the web with ease.

So sure, it will increase the cost. But people will buy it, people rather pay money for quality than be stingy for crap.

Most people have to buy two devices .. so why not include all of those in one gadget? It actually saves money.

But I guess you'll get high-ranked and me low-ranked because this is engadget after all, and the iPhone trumps all, and EVERY single topic, whether related even remotely to Apple or the iPod/iPhone or not, must receive at least one response (usually multiple responses) like this. So good for you for doing things the engadget way!]]>Apr 25th 2008 6:47PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/04/25/how-would-you-change-samsungs-yp-p2/http://www.engadget.com/2008/04/25/how-would-you-change-samsungs-yp-p2/

I'd love to see touch sensitivity fixed up a bit.

I'd love to see a longer battery life.

I'd love to see texting available via bluetooth. I was kind of sad I wasn't able to just text, but my P2 keeps beeping when I get a message. I don't care if it's a standard numeric keypad.

I'd love to see more customization options. I'd also love to see the damn bar at the bottom of the myskin gone. Ahhh!!! Why are all other buttons transparent, but on myskins, it's not, when the skin is meant to showoff a photograph of some sort.

The ambient light sensor on the touch, I'd love to see on the P2. I go outside, and have to manually adjust the brightness. I get inside, I have to manually dim it.

I'd love to see the screen get a lot brighter. It's impossible to read outside.

Take off the damn karaoke shit on lyrics.

Support Japanese D< I keep manually typing out lyrics to my songs only to have them come up as @!@$#@%#$%^ ^&^%# @#$%T#$%^%$ ~~~%^%$^%$

More space, but the limited technology holds us back from that. I will probably wait until a 32GB P2 comes out as opposed to a new iPod, as 4GB is nothing for me....60GB was nothing for me...but I like the touchscreens.

I'd love to see an increase in accessories. I dropped it once and now it's got a paint chip and a slight mark on the top corner of the player. I'd love to have a case I didn't have to pay $50 for. A DECENT case.

Make more games. There is a touch screen. So many things can come out of it! Simple games, and solitaire would be amazing! Oooooh pyramids too!

Music controls while playing games. Perhaps just implement them into the menu or the need to tap the top corner or something, but them existing would be amazing. ]]>Apr 25th 2008 7:05PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/04/25/how-would-you-change-samsungs-yp-p2/http://www.engadget.com/2008/04/25/how-would-you-change-samsungs-yp-p2/
I'd wish for it to be a wireless remote control, don't know if this has infrared, but it'd be cool to control the PS3 thru bluetooth

Does this already have GPS function or camera? I'd like those too.

I'd like this to have satellite radio as well or HD radio.

I saw that the Korean version can watch TVs with theirs, it'd be nice too for this one but I guess there's too much hassle since we're switching DTV by 2009.

And since I'm thinking of adding so much stuff, I'd hope that they have two types of detachable batteries included, a slim and an extended life version(s).
