I would want to link the phone, calander, drop box, email, and a contact list all together so that I could pull up a contact and have it tell me what communications I got from a specific person when that I tagged or didn’t check and also be able to quickly send a correspondence in both text and voice forms with a voice to text translator so that they can choose which form to respond to or be able to automatically place a reminder on the calendar so that it can set an alarm based on a mentioned event in an email that says the name of the event and warns you a day or a few hours before the event happens.
