Apple’s Phil Schiller took to the stage of San Francisco’s Moscone Centre on Tuesday to announce a number of updates to the Apple product line. While many additions are welcome (DRM-free iTunes, 3G music downloads), there are some things Apple didn’t announce which I think would be serious upgrades to the company’s offerings.

1) Flash support on iPhone. Adding Flash support is a double edged sword for the Jesus Phone. Upside is that we all can enjoy services like Hulu (in the US) and other flash-based media streaming services. Downside is the bandwidth that might get consumed as a result. Might get REAL easy to use up a 6GB data plan…

2) Cut & Paste. I haven’t really gotten on the cut-and-paste-on-the-iPhone bandwagon until I started using Twitter real heavily on my iPhone. Simply put… Posting URLs inside iPhone-based Twitter clients is painnnnful.

3) TV room killer. Yep… Boxee is pretty cool. But DVDs are so passé. As much as I want to be all-Apple-VOD, I might want to pop in a Blu-Ray disc every once in a while. And I might even want to watch Anderson Cooper on PVR at 2am. Apple TV has a great interface… But it needs a take-three to get it right.

4) Multitouch in the home. I want multitouch on my next iMac. Period.

5) Better TV lineups in Canada & abroad. It isn’t fair that our US friends can toss away cable and live off Apple TV and Netflix on the 360 and we’re stuck watching 3 year old catalog shows from Comedy Central. Really… “Strangers with Candy” and “Stella” weren’t *that* funny.

6) Sideways mail on the iPhone. Really, I shouldn’t have to turn to third party software to make mail typable in landscape mode.

7) iMovie for not-dummies. The traditional, broadcast-standard timeline approach to editing video is not hard to learn or understand. Stop trying to reinvent the wheel! And rename the damn thing! It should be a product line : Final Cut Home, Final Cut Express, and Final Cut Studio.

Oh… And one more thing…

Wireless sync between iTunes and iPod Touch/iPhone. That would SO rock!

But all that will have to eait until (hopefully) the next Apple “event”…
