Bigger displays

I would like to see bigger screens on mobile phones. The keyboard is another issue. The mobility doesn't mean it has to go into a pocket. There should be a middle of the road way for frequent travellers:
  • Bigger display
  • Practical keyboard
  • Full mobility
  • Big memory
  • I want to carry with me my business information
  • Micropayment functions
  • Near field communication with bigger displays
  • Powerpointing with my mobile phone
Treo promises 60MB of dedicated user storage. They think that gives me plenty of room to download and carry my important documents and favorite media files. I need more. The memory should be 1 - 5 Gb, maybe larger.
  • Send stories, photos, videos, and audio clips all from one application—no need to switch from the camera to MMS or email.
  • Play your favorite MP3 files with PocketTunes.
  • Documents to Go version 8.0 lets you work with Microsoft Word and Excel files, rehearse PowerPoint presentations, and consult PDF files.
  • Move faster with the broadband-like speed of EvDO—one of the fastest networks available in the U.S.
  • Take advantage of broadband-like speeds on your laptop by using your smartphone as a wireless modem.
All this is great. The key problem is however network speed. I'd like to see faster mobile networks or than easy to access wi-fi services.
