A couple for the 'suggestion box'...
I would like to see the G68 have one full complement of inputs accessable from the front of the unit 1 x composite, s-video, component, analogue L/R audio, optical and coax digital input and, erm, HDMI. Personally I would not mind if these replaced a set on the back panel rather than being an additional set. Useful for temporarily connecting a device such a camcorder - with the advent of HD camcorder formats, existing SD inputs on TV's/videos etc are not up to the task and the HD inputs are often fully utilised. Its often difficult to reach around the back of the unit to make a connection and leads are often proprietry format so not easy to obtain duplicates for more permanent connections.
The bottom of the G68 has a panel that could possible be replaced with a flap that could cover a set of inputs.
I would also like to see RGB (including RGB + synch on composite ie SCART format) input/switching available and transcoding from RGB to component. Don't mind if transcoding was done in G9x so long as G68 could switch RGBs. If this was done on G68 via a component + composite input then possibly an additional set of component inputs would be nice - 3 for component and RGB would be quite limited.
Plus transcoding of HD/progressive component video to be mirrored on HDMI output of G9x.
