Wish List 2.0
Back in March 2007 I posted an item asking for readers to submit their Wish Lists. I organized this list and presented it to LEGO at FLL 2007. Since then, I've received positive feedback about the Wish List and (I'm promised) there will be some feedback shortly on it.
That said, in a recent discussion with LEGO, I was told that LEGO not only appreciated the Wish List, but that they want to do it again. I was told that LEGO wanted a way to listen to its fans/customers and to also possibly respond. So, here's your (2nd) chance.
I've created a new discussion section in our forum called "Wish List 2.0 Discussion" and in there are two posts. One post sets the rules for posting. The other post is where you'll actually put your Wish List items.
LEGO has told me that the Wish List doesn't have to be limited to just hardware... software, firmware, and other products related to NXT are all allowed.
Please take this opportunity and let LEGO know what's on your mind. I guarantee they'll be looking in on this discussion and you never know who might respond. I'll continue to push for some feedback on Wish List 1.0, but for now, we'll start with a clean slate. LEGO has expressed their desire to know what we, the customers, want from MINDSTORMS in the near and far future, so don't hold back.

Also I want text programming for I can post it in forums. Maybe it could be like EasyC where you can 'block it', or 'text it'.
But you should be able to 'paist' it in to the code.
I want feedback from the servos, like the Robotis Bioloid, where you can get feedback on temp, speed, torue, and more.
All around more programming fetures, like more 'stock' blocks.
In NXT-G 2.0 I will want to import 1.0 code.
I want to inport 1.0 3rd party programming blocks.
I want better CAD software. In LDD 2.0 you can not make stuff like the "NXTLiftBoy".
I like how you can see what parts you have used in LDD 2.0.
Maybe have three kits, one for robot newbies, an upgrade for the people who have NXT 1.0, and a kit for advanced users.

Maybe it's just my retailer in MA, but this particular LEGO franchise sells no Technic parts of any kind, only the Technic kits.
Surely they could stock a few Technic packs in every store?

LEGO will most likely NOT see these requests in a few days time.
