Video Editor (correct hand-shaking, for instance)
Image/Icon Editor (pixel-by-pixel, with zoom for more exact pointing; with transparency support; would be useful for cases when you want to draw icon for hildon menu or Fennec extension)
Use of the front webcam for photographs and video
An extension or update for fapman so you can use it to install applications you already have in mydocs or the sd card
a geographic alarm: to sound when approaching a specific address/place
OVI maps as in S^3 devices (with voice guides and OVI sync) (note http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=66985 )
ringtone maker/editor
Open-source replacements of Panorama and FrontView Scanner.
Panorama doesn't like vertical movements of the camera, works only with horizontal, while I would like to use both horizontal and vertical movements in one photograph to make it both higher and wider than usual photograph.
FrontView Scanner allows to select only rectangles, not triangles, not pentagon, not hexagon. It sounds as absurd, but... What about scanning triangular post stamp? Or curved sheet of paper which can be represented as hexagon?
QWERTY keyboard, which supports both portrait and landscape, has Ctrl, Fn and Shift buttons. Supports all the layouts the default vk supports.

Just improve current apps. Faster, bug free, more features, polished UI. We have load of gps apps, note taking apps, timers etc. I just see row of things half done complete / right where part that is missing is on another app that is missing again other things.

CD/DVD/bluray emulator that is visible as real device when usb is plugged in. And on n900 would you just need to select ISO(or maybe other formats too) for emulation.

It would be awesome to have some Game development kits for the N900
The Unity3d engine was mentioned earlier and would be great to see but personally I would like to see the Platinum Arts Sandbox engine Running on N900
This is a FREE and OPEN SOURCE, yet simple open world engine that can create some fairly impressive 3D graphics and could have the potential to for us to our own games. It has already had outings on the iPhone with Cube2 (the original sauerbraten game).
Here's the demo

I have already suggested this here too

C'mon guys! Let's get 3G Video call first (to complete the 'phone' functionality and put a stop to all those threads).
Second, I'd vote for Ovi maps with turn-by-turn navigation (at least like the regular Ovi maps on Symbian).
Someone mentioned lightsaber...I think that sounds very interesting also

1. Definitely PPTP VPN. I needed bandages for my thumbs after I had configured it using power kernel and a lot of scripting customizations (e.g. od doesnīt have the same parameters as GNU od ). It was a real pain to get it running although I learned a lot. I am still some sort of linux noob and havenīt figured out how to create my own user friendly packages.
2. Bluetooth HID configs and keymaps for most of the working BT keyboards. I got the Chinfai foldable one but neither does my N900 connect nor do I have a decent keymap. Diving into XFree keyboard specification gave me the creeps.
3. A full filesystem backup. I was raging mad when I had to reinstall all my applications after an upgrade to the last fremantle distribution. I would rather have restored my phone back to the previous state but I couldnīt!!! I donīt care about what is on my memory card. I care about the root filesystem.
4. All standard apps like e.g. PPTP VPN, decent BT HID and FSBackup available right from the start, included in distribution, right after you do a firmware upgrade, out of the box. When I bought my N900 I thought I was modifying a Debian Linux not writing it all myself from the scratch.
5. For the future: no so tight app certification. I dumped my N95 because I could hardly find (!) and install any application: certificate timeout. I want to play sudoku. I donīt want to spend days on finding out which signed package is still installable. I am pleased by messages that tell me about an untrusted origin of an application. I am enraged by requesters that tell me that I cannot install the application at all!
No more symbian syndrome, please!
6. Working MMS would be nice. I still didnīt dare to install the package that told me it could send and receive MMS "hopefully"
@all: does it work for you?

Hello,
I have a simple idea for a simple alarm, hope someone is up to the challenge.
Is it possible to make an application you activate on you main screen (Via widget for example), and after 5 second, or defined time, the alarm would go on if someone or something moves the phone ?
Its a rough idea with lots of room for improvement, for example:
- timer to set it of after a few seconds with password or predefined movements (this would be tough..)
- If the alarm goes off, take a picture from the front camera
- Option to simply shutdown the N900 if wrong code or movement
- Option to call for another predefined numeber, if code is wrong.
Whats your thoughts ?
Best regards

All times are GMT. The time now is 11:08.
1) I would like to see a ringtone maker/editor, something really simple like a bar that lets you chose the start time and end time of any track and then either save it as a new tone or make the phone start ringing from that point of that track.
2) Another App I would like to see is gnutella client. I dont know if theres any open source client for this but I know there was one for the symbianOS. (i dont know what the forums view is on p2p but its just an idea)
Some cross platform online games would also be pretty sweet, e.g a pool game
