My wish list for future Kindles:
1 Folder support. Or fake folders by means of tags would be okay
2 I'd like to be able to lend my e-books to other Kindle owners, by telling Amazon's servers to take it off my Kindle and load it on someone else's Kindle for a certain period of time. This would actually be better than lending a p-book, because it couldn't be lost or forgotten.
2A I would like to be able to buy Kindle books as presents for other people, and for them to be able to buy them as presents for me. I really don't see what's hard about this.
3 I'd like the Kindle to support every e-book format out there (or at the very least Epub and .lit as well as .mobi) and Kindle e-books to be readable on every reader out there. I think this would actually be good, not just for customers, but for Amazon.
4) Bring back the SD card expansion slot and the user-replaceable battery. It is okay for it to be a little thicker. Really. No, seriously.
As long as I'm dreaming...
5) I'd like to have a version that could read pdfs. That means it must be 8 1/2 by 11. Trust me, it will be a godsend for scientists and science students who are presently stuck with pounds and pounds of unsearchable paper copies.
6) I'd like to be able to write onscreen to underline and annotate documents, and save those annotations and transfer them to other kindles. If we add in handwriting recognition too, we can ditch the keyboard and use that space for a bigger screen.
