Re: What do you want your cellphone to do?
For now, we lag behind few of the basic things. Like battery-span is still so short, it should last for months. Phones are not reliable (even though CAT has released a tough one but its still not that hardcore). Cameras are still behind quality-wise. Space still can be an issue. OSes are laggy.

For expanding screen example, there was this SciFi show on TV called Expanse. The people in there were carrying around these phones (which they called Terminals). It was a glass slab about the size of iPhone 4 which expanded and became bigger when needed.
For health and fitness we need nano-bots in our bodies which would be transmitting all the data to our phones and giving us up to the minute information about our body conditions. These are coming sooner than we think 
And TLK, broadcast TV? Really? :hehe:
