No NFC does look like the only significant missed opportunity, but it probably needed Apple to introduce it to make it mainstream, so they may not have missed the boat here. It gives them an obvious feature in the wings for the iPhone 5S.

Maybe they "didn't miss the boat", but the specs are underwhelming for Fall of 2012, and this is supposed to be apple's flagship for the next 12-18 months. It is already bested by many phones out there, let alone the ones to come in the following months.
