Missing stylus/wand/ring/remote for graphics or gestures, forgot to mention instant-on, but okay!
Add an Operating System Cartridge/Card: Something like "EMTEC Gdium Liberty" (not thru a thumbdrive) BUT the programs, documents and settings on a separate removable encrypted hard drive (self-defrags if mechanical).
Now, these UltraBooks are still islands of logic, drop Windows 7 or MacOS XI and replace it with a more advanced island/cloud hybrid, say, an OS based on Mozilla Prism, running say, (AnyBrand) Office 2012 Workgroup Edition.
Now the peripherals: Printers, scanners, webcams all have its own driver, apps and manuals embedded (the net takes care of the extras), true plug and play and no more lost boxes, discs or manuals! Also add: external displays in the form of whiteboards, silverscreens or just a spare monitors in your room (The "photoclockradiotelevisionvideophone" from the last issue, too).
Servers: (NO NOT the entire basement!) Where your machines versions and backs up your projects, family albums TV recordings and movie collections. Allows you to dock and sync your removable harddrives, allows you to access your apps in your bedroom to work on docs that you brought home while keeping the bulk of your work laptop switched off and in the bag (Workarounds like VNC is history). Serves you your apps, docs, media and forwards your calls to you when you are away from home. Also takes care of the hefty processing when you are in a online gaming session.

The bottom screen of the laptop should have a screen like the Blackberry Storm so that when the onscreen keyboard is being used you don't accidentally type in lots of random buttons.

It should also have bluetooth capabilities so it is able to connect with cell phones wirelessly and able to connect with other laptops or desktops (with bluetooth capabilities).
