UTMS, 8Gig, Top Camera....

Guys,

In my opinion, for a 'mobile person' the best combination of things would be:

1/ a PDA. ('a big touchscreen')
2/ an 'auxilary device'.

Now I feel a phone would be ideal for being the aux device. So here comes the question.. anyone know of an upcoming (existing?) phone that....

a/ Can play a MODERN audio compression format. AAC, Ogg Vorbis or perhaps MPC? MP3 is simply not efficient enough for me. Also it should be able to sustain playback for at least 8 hours and leaving some juice left for calls.
b/ Has a TON of space for data. I am talking 8Gb at the very very least. 20 Preferrable.
c/ Has a good 'phone' for both voice as well as UMTS/EDGE/HSDPA or whatever.
d/ Has bluetooth (to link with the PDA) and perhaps wifi
e/ Has a -proper- camera? 5 megapixels and 3x zoom are among the requirements.., 25fps mpeg4 recording would be excellent but perhaps that asking too much.

Since I have a PDA I do -not- want a large keyboard (qwerty?) or a big screen. I guess I can live with them if I have to, of course.

*holds breath*
 
The N95 is close, but no cigar.

The main reason I doubt Ill be getting it is that at best (?) you can get 2GB storage space for it, one miniSD. Any music player with less than 5GB is a toy (in my opinion).

Also Im not 100% happy that this 5mpixel camera has no optical zoom. Maybe that is asking too much even in our modern world, so I -guess- I could let that 'demand' go.. (i realise that for extensive optics you might simply need more space than a normal sized phone has..)
 
Addendum:

The Samsung SGH i1310 comes close, but this one only has a 2mpixel camera. (and no GPS but I dont think I really need that)
The Samsung SCH-B600 indeed has 3x optical zoom and 10 (gasp) mpixel but it only supports MMC micro which is max 2GB as far as I can find.

Anyone have other phones to suggest here?
 
What you're asking for does not exist, not even close. And probably won't until the 2nd or 3rd generation iphone or something from someone else.
 
Well the 3 phones we've listed so far are indeed about '1 generation' away from doing it all. To reach my 'demands' we don't need an order of magnitude increase in quality/specs, just a liiiitle more camera resolution or a weeee bit larger sized storage cards (or back to regular SD that will be at 8GB soon)

I do agree of course that -today- there is no such phone in the market.
