yup! 512 mb ram that still won't allow saving on a memory card, maybe a 5.0 mp camera but this time without the flash and marginal image stablization

, same resolution, maybe wifi with guaranteed wireless N that sucks up the slightly larger battery even more, 4g even closer in site but not here yet due to cost, a processor thats slightly faster but laggy because the new 7.0 OS will still be buggy but with lots of features, an updated micro USB port that we won't care about, bluetooth 3.0 with very few pairing options, a newly redesigned battery door that gives us all sorts of problems. The device will be less than a mm thinner and lighter, but slightly longer
screen will still be plastic and along with that will be the newly incorporated plastic screwes (over the metal ones) that reduce cost. Although it feels cheap, the device will definately be light weight and cost affective to the manufacturer. We'll still be paying $199 with a 2 year contract however!
We'll complain, but when they come out with it in white 6 months later, we'll all be happy again! Even if we have to pay $199 all over again
