I'm impressed with 24% thinner. After holding an iPod touch for the first time I always wished my iPhone was less bulky.

To be honest, I would much rather see a thicker phone with a longer battery. My current iPhone (the 3g) feels unnecessarily thin to me.
What I would really like to see would be the option for a larger battery.
The Mophie Juice Pack does two things for my 3G:
(1) Makes it thicker (2) Gives it longer battery life.
Problem solved ;)
Yes, people don't really appreciate this. With Canon Powershot cameras, they went thicker when they added image-stabilization a few years ago, and that quarter inch or whatnot really made a huge difference in how big it felt and how pocketable it was.
