I would like to suggest a couple more:

if web browsing is encorperated, then there should be some abillity to
connect to other machines, e.g. telnet ssh etc.  I would also value
the abillity to use the pda to act as a terminal e.g. connect to the serial port of say, a linux box a router etc.

when you talk about email web browsing etc, what did you have in mind
for connection to the net?  a built in modem?

just my two cents worth.
