Here are the things I use regularly that iOS doesn't/probably-will-never have.

- Free turn by turn navigation that's better than any dedicated gps device.

- Wifi or bluetooth tethering. I recently was travelling with my girlfriend, and we both could access the internet on our laptops routed over WiFi through my phone. The hotel even had free wifi, but it was easier to not bother with figuring out how to set that up, and just use my phone.

- Fully integrated Google Voice.

  - Wifi or bluetooth tethering.

Bluetooth tethering is already there (it was available in iPhone OS 3 too).

I've said it before and I'll say it again. Jailbreak!

Other than the turn by turn every other feature you said is available with jail broken ios. So you get the best of both worlds: slick usabe interface and powerful features.

I honestly don't know why more people don't jailbreak their iPhones.

One of the reasons I don't usually keep mine jailbroken is that it becomes very annoying to upgrade. It's jailbroken right now, but the tethering is basically the only thing I miss when it's not, and that, only very occasionally.
