        dedicated expandable storage and read-only access to pictures and video would be a great addition.

        USB storage and local Outlook sync are non-negotiable. I was excited to upgrade from Windows Mobile to WP7, but had to return it immediately when I found it couldn't do what my old phone could. I now use Blackberry because it works much better with my Windows PC and Office. I'd rather have a Windows Phone, but cannot get one until these functions return.

        It should be enabled by default, especially on Windows systems.
        Strange that MS haven't done this yet ...

        iI'm okay with this but it would be nice to have some space on the phone to store things

        I love WP but without USB storage isn't a complete and mature mobile OS

        I wanted to buy a WP7 smart phone but decided not to, after I found out it can't even replace a USB drive.

        DO NOT ignore the incredible list of advantages that come with having access to one's data anywhere, anytime.
