Introducing the Feature Wishlist
The Application Wishlist on S60.com has become a popular way for consumers to tell developers what kind of apps they should develop, and it’s been an ideal tool for developers to use when thinking of new apps to design. We’ve noticed a lot of users contributing great ideas on how to improve the S60 platform itself, so yesterday we launched the “Feature Wishlist” in the B2B section of S60.com.
This page is monitored daily by members of our marketing team and the wishes are passed along to S60’s product development team. Our marketing guys can provide feedback on each of the wishes in the comment section, they might even let you know if your wish is already planned for an upcoming release.
So if you’ve got a great idea to improve the S60 platform, this is the perfect way to begin a direct line of communication to our development team. The Wishlist also comes packed with an RSS feed, tagging, categories, search capability, and Digg-style voting. Occasionally our marketing team will create summaries of all the most interesting wishes and post them on S60.com.
Hope everyone finds it fun and useful! I’m really looking forward towards everyone’s ideas!

It would be useful if comments were enabled. I see a lot of stuff there which is based lack of knowledge. Comments would be a good place to correct them and an opportunity to spread more information.

Hey Phil! This really is an excellent approach. The feature & applications wishlists are something that was LONG overdue.
One thing that I would simply love to see included is having an offline encyclopedia. Honestly, if we can have entire dictionaries, encyclopedias are just another few steps away.
I’ve recently started a project related to this and assigned myself the rather herculean task of converting a substantial chunk of the Wikipedia for all S60 devices, from the 7650 to the N95
