Along with these, here are some other things I wish Sony would address for their DPT-S2 (Sony, are you listening? :P):
- Copy & Paste (PDF text as well as e-ink notes via a lasso tool) [Fixed in v1.5.5 firmware]
- Ink colors besides red and blue (black and green options would be nice)
- Better palm rejection for the bottom control buttons (or disable them when inking) to prevent accidental presses
- Simple file manager so we can organize PDFs and notes (i.e., move them to different folders) without tethering to a PC
- Built-in Oxford dictionary with quick word lookup (this is my favorite feature on the Kindle)
- Dropbox support
- Ability to export handwritten notes to OneNote
- Shape smoother to straighten out basic shapes you draw, similar to what S Note does on Samsung Galaxy Note phones
- Faster search, especially in large documents (> 30 MB)
- Global search
- Option to choose note template whenever you add a new note (e.g., lined paper, grid paper) [Fixed in v1.5.5 firmware]
- Support for other formats (if EPUB is not feasible, then it wouldn't be that difficult to add a basic plain text editor or HTML viewer, or simply allow the browser to navigate the file system)
- Soft backlight similar to the Paperwhite or Kobo's ComfortLight (even better if it had an ambient light sensor which dims the light gradually when you turn off the lights like on the Kindle Voyage)
- Faster processor (this would help with the zooming and other operations)
- Higher resolution screen (the current dpi is 150; if they truly want to emulate a sheet of printed A4, then they should bring the dpi up closer to 300)
