*Useful and working email client (pop, imap) with control over maximum email size to load, text/html formatting, attachment control (only load when necessary), multi-line display in overview, landscape/portrait mode etc... so just something that you can USE!

==Internet==

*Offline tools - flickr uploader, Gmail, Blogger and RSS

*A LinkedIn application

==Multimedia==

*Audiobook player with automatic bookmarking and playlist capability - see http://panucci.garage.maemo.org/
*Canola - FM radio, and better internet radio support in Canola (mediaplayer is far better, but far uglier!)
*Music player with minilyrics support (.lrc files), showing the lyrics in full screen size, with options about size and colors.
*Media Player - Better media player / internet radio app that plays ogg, wma, and he-aac, and doesn't corrupt the library when it feels like.
*Control Media Player with the [http://maemo.org/community/brainstorm/view/headset_button_input_reader/ headset button] (click to pause, double click to next track, long click, triple click and so on).
*Music Player (default) - Support for in app metadata editing, repeat option for a single song in a playlist and a option to select view song lyrics by pressing on the artwork section.

* Bluetooth rSAP
* [[:wikipedia:Bluetooth profile#Advanced Audio Distribution Profile (A2DP)|Bluetooth A2DP profile]]
* Better support for right-to-left languages, such as Arabic and Hebrew.
* Unionfs support built into the kernel (So users don't have to flash initfs and boot from SD, or make symlinks gone wild, just to install a few extra apps)
* More intuitive copy and paste
** Like the Apple Newton, for example
* Phone buttons (green/red)...

==Application enhancement==

===Calendar and ToDo List===

* A PIM system that can be tied into by developers, to provide PC synchronization etc.
** An equivalent to telepathy for calendar, contact list and tasks: A well integrated framework (with binding for many languages such as Python).
** Possibly related to and syncable between Nokia phone models - as well as online. PIM data should be available everywhere.
** PIM synchronization with Outlook (you may not be a fan of Outlook but that's what businesses need)
** Add more fields to the address book: Actual address, Birthday,....
* Global sync-software
* Birthday could display age
* Calendar sync with Thunderbird

===email===
*Search for emails and calendar
*An easy way to copy text from email content
*Ability to open email attachments
*multi-line display (sender, subject)
*configurable fonts
*less "show" more "content" when composing emails (hard to read and compose!)
*configurable download quantity (how many kb to download of each mail, no attachment download)
*similar features for imap and pop
*offline imap
*more control about autocheck time (day of the week, timeframe within checking)

===SMS===

* SMS writing via numeric keypad
* Portrait SMS
** See [[VertSMS]]

===Contacts===
*Voice Tags/dialling for contacts for use in the car
*Contacts synchronisation via Gmail or Ovi
