I think there's been far too little speculation on this List for the
last couple of years. So I've had to do all the dreaming myself, of
what I'd like to see in my next camera. Things I would actually need
for what I do. Of course other people's needs will differ, so why not

I would probably be interested in a premium one... by the time I ordered
one, the extra cost is negligible anyway.

It sucks that the Macbook doesn't have a SD card slot.
That's all.
In my experience, built in card readers are mind-numbingly slow. At least
the oens in my laptops are.
Even with the built in one, I use the little SanDisk MicroMate readers that
come with the Extreme III SDHC cards. They
