WebOS Suggestion​s for HP Palm

Question

I'm a big fan of webOS so I want HP Palm to succeed.  I have a few suggestions that hopefully will help in that regard.  You've already heard common suggestions like releasing better hardware with HD displays and 4G speeds so I won't repeat those.  Hopefully these are unique...
The first suggestion is to utilize Wi-Fi Direct.  The Wi-Fi Peer-to-Peer specification allows Wi-Fi devices to talk to each other without the need for an access point.  This means I could wirelessly send a document from my Palm Pre to a coworker's Palm Pre without an internet connection.
HP Palm is better positioned than anyone else to utilize Wi-Fi Direct.  What about HP printers running webOS with Wi-Fi Direct?  Now I can walk up to any HP printer, find it through a Wi-Fi Direct application on my Palm Pre phone, and print my document all without an internet connection!
The final two suggestions are to remove some artificial limitations that I think are hurting HP Palm more than they realize.  And for no good reason!  I've seen many posts on these issues and I suspect there are lots of customers who include them in their reasons for considering other OSes.
The first limitation is the browser image size limitation.  I know this limitation is artificial.  I can only suspect that the carriers require this?  But Android devices do not have this limitation.  Why not push for the same deal Google has with the carriers and remove this limitation?
The second limitation is the lack of autonomous GPS.  I know this limitation is artificial too.  Once again this may be a carrier requirement.  But Android devices do not have this limitation either.  So why not push for the same deal Google has with the carriers and remove it?
The first two suggestions are extremely important to the majority of your customers but I'll admit that the last one may not be.  I included that because I'm a hiker who would like to have one device for both communication and standalone GPS on hikes with no cellular signal.
I don't even care if the standalone GPS isn't very accurate.  Close is better than nothing when you're lost on a hike!  And the fact that it is supported in hardware but is artificially turned off even though Android phones have it turned on just seems like a wasted opportunity.
So I hope these suggestions help.  And I hope they make it to someone in HP Palm that can do something about them.  I personally think that they will contribute significantly to the success of HP Palm.  I know they would definitely keep me on board!
Thanks for listening...

Answer 1

I just realized that some people who read about Wi-Fi Direct might be asking "why not just use Bluetooth?"  Bluetooth is a low power consumer and that is great for mobile.  But it also limits the distance and speed at which this protocol can operate.
Wi-Fi has current and proposed specifications that permit greater distances and speeds.  The benefits I see here are having a consistent protocol for non-cellular communication and the obvious benefits of communicating at greater distances and speeds.
Portable gaming devices already use peer-to-peer Wi-Fi for multiplayer gaming.  This permits gamers to search and discover other gamers say at a football stadium while waiting for halftime.  It also permits practical things like sending files to devices you aren't standing directly in front of.
