One vote for a Tomato!  The poor tomato always gets mistake for a 
vegitable, and its time for a little recognition for tomatos!

Seriously, something with a little color would be nice, just to spruce things
up a little.  I would think in order to really make 2.0 be taken 
seriously you should set aside a little time to do nothing except 
aesthetic improvements--  Color icons on the hot band, color icon in the 
upper left-hand corner (that doesn't infringe on copyrights), and perhaps 
a very tiny little control on the browser to change the background 
color-- nothing too complex, just the ability to change to, say, green, 
or blue...  16 color option?
Aesthetics control the first impressions of what potential customers 
think-- and the first impression is always REALLY important.  If they 
start out saying, `eh, its sort of ugly but it works fine', then they 
will be less likely to buy it than if they had said, `cool.  Its even 
layed out --better-- than my Mac, and it even works fine!'...

Just my $.02!
