1. Camera: No camera for clicking pics, recording video or doing a video chat.
2. USB support: Since it doesn’t have camera to click snaps or record video. There should be an easy way to put your album or data into it. USB at present is the best option.
3. Flash support: Apple claims that in majority of cases flash is a culprit of breaking down Mac OS. It may be, but the fact is that Flash is used very widely now-a-days. People are migrating their sites to flash.
4. Multitasking: Perhaps the biggest disappointment, you can’t watch video while reading out a document in Pages.
For the first time, you get a reason not to jail break iPhone 2G, 3G. Apple has approved iVideoCamera application (0.99$) for recording video on iPhone 2G and iPhone 3G.

Part 3 – Testing
This video is dedicated to testing environment of HTC and Google. Video included many test like tumble test, button test, drop test etc..
Google has made a short file on making of Nexus One. Two parts out of five of this film are available to watch. I just finished watching first and second parts. I like the noise cancellation technology very much.
I am big fan of cycorder video recorder. Recorder very well adds the missing feature of recording in iPhone 2G, 3G.
It really sucks at times when one records a video and try to play this and it displays a message that video can’t be played.
As of now there is no solution present as per my knowledge . There is some hope after seeing road map on Saurik’s site. It may take a month or two for the next release. So don’t delete your important videos, which are corrupted. You can be able to play them after a while .
