Features are great for keeping people interested in a product they already know how to use, but you can't get them there in the first place unless the biggest value is dead simple.

I'm a Crackberry addict so I can definitely recommend one (the Curve is wonderfully engineered little gadget).

I'm an ex- software engineer and can attest that unless they (engineers) are reigned in by someone more practical they will over-engineer something with a lot of useful features that have the unintuitive effect of making the end product less usable.
