Vernon,

Who cares?  Let's keep telling them what we would like to see if
and when they do decide to put out a new radio.  This is fun. 

Personally, I am quite happy with my Omni VI and am not yet 
ready financially to pop for a new radio, so it still being a few 
years away is okay by me.....for now.

Here are my suggestions: 

Make the pushbutton switches programmable for not only their
marked functions (replace markings with led/lcd descriptions above
the switches?), but for external switching control of external peripheral
hardware (antenna switches, key/keyer, audio, mic, etc., etc.,...).

Include a cw key input on/off function

Include an audio monitor capability

Many of the other suggestions were good, too.  

73,
