Won't Crack

The iPod Touch is already thinner than the iPhone-- I suspect they're probably just making the iPhone and iTouch the same size (probably helps with some component availability). I carry it in my pocket all the time. It's very solid.
Right.

I already worry that I'll crack the thing when I keep it in my pocket. I would much rather see a bigger battery than a slimmer phone. It's small enough already.

From a physical standpoint, I think what they need is a more grippable surface, higher-capacity battery (I'm actually OK with it being non-removable - I've never bought a replacement battery for any cell phone I've owned), a couple more buttons on the face, a non-recessed headphone jack, louder speakers and a better camera w/ flash.

Would you like for it to tuck you into bed at night and have coffee ready for you in the morning?

How about turning off the caps lock when typing a post? Or are you really yelling this suggestion to Apple?

I would like blue tooth stereo headphones capabilities. FLASH!! Longer battery life. Video skype would be nice.
