Bring in Video CHAT like they did with iPhone 4 then this phone will be sick.
seriously having skype is the killer app, but people don't seem to recognise it.
In our company we use Skype for homeworkers.
Needless to say the N900 has redefined HOME for me thanks to the integrated Skype client. Yes it works on 3G. Flawless quality.
People should get creatve in enjoying what they have instead of needing to get spooned in new things all the time.
That said a decent QT standard cross platform multi platfor email client would be no luxury.

Having Skype is indeed the killer app. Having Skype continue to get updates would be the killer implementation.

I was doing some reading about apps... and found this web-accessible Apple's AppStore top (download) charts. Maybe it can serve as a starting point for those looking for ideas or whatever:

Given that Facetime is considerably more open than Skype, saying "no thanks" to Facetime is a bit short-sighted.
