I can't see why these things are popular? I can't stand the tin-can like (don't know the expression in English, well basically it's bad

) sound of those built-in speakers. I see no problem in lending my earbuds (always carry some cheap ones around) to let my friends hear an awesome track.
Back on topic:
A 16:9 screen would rock, but please no touch screen! I prefer a touchstrip like the M6's over a touchscreen. The biggest problem with a touchscreen is the stylus which always gets lost and scratches from the stylus. If the touchscreen is stylus free, the problem is even worse: Imagine a fingerprint on the place where you just tapped to start a video. Offcourse you can wipe it away, but you'll have to do it after everything you do on it.
I do agree that devices like the M8 would rock with a touchscreen. You can do numerous tasks with them, and a touchscreen makes it more intuitive to use that. A PMP however works just as well with a touchstrip, it's simple and you know where everything is and what it does.
