More Life Please

News on the BBC that the top request for the most desirable feature of next generation mobile devices is a Long life mobile battery.

Interestingly, 2 days life was the most popular request, something I'd be happy with on my mobile. It now struggles with a day if I'm lucky, which means remembering to put it on charge every night this week if I'm to keep in touch with the world outside of Hammersmith ;-)

Other requests, with over half, was more memory, and in the case of mobile phones, better resolution cameras. It's hard to imagine a phone without a camera, and yet this is still a fairly recent thing. I can still remember 1 megapixel digital cameras being new and exciting, and now you can get a free mobile with two high res cameras :-O

What I want is a mobile phone, with a decent camera, speedy GPRS/Data connection, and enough memory for my calendar, contacts, and pics of my brothers fooling around on a night out ;-) All of this squeezed into a space the size of my current phone, the Nokia 7650. And I can see that being a reality now. Hurrah :-D
