I've thought about the fact that they couldn't handle the cold (in fact, my zombie plan always involved moving Up North) but the Heat and Natural Predators never really occurred to me. Good points on those.

The biting point is interesting which is why I think I found the movie Contagion and The Bay to be horrifying - There are so many other ways that we can catch diseases and die. Boyle touched a bit on that in 28 Days Later but one could argue that that movie, along with Contagion and The Bay, is an infection movie but not a zombie movie per se.

My biggest place where I need to suspend disbelief is with your #1 - I feel as though with all of our weapons and whatnot there is no way that zombies could truly take us over. It would be interesting if it was revealed in The Walking Dead that the government just let the plague happen to de-populate the United States - That's more believable than a true decimating outbreak.
