Croatia, Iceland and Montenegro
Norway was recently declared to have the best quality of life (the UN's Human Development Index) so maybe staying outside the Euro Zone has its benefits.
The earliest Albania and Macedonia and could join would be the end of this decade. Serbia I'm assuming is one the few places where there would be very strong resistance against joining, so they're off for now. Albania is the poorest country in Europe, but if Romania can join I don't see why Albania can't some day.
Turkey is off the list for next wave of expansion for political reasons. That's an issue Europe is going to have to deal with at some point. I support Turkey joing the EU, with the one exception that they restrict immigration to Europe from Turkey, even if this doesn't apply to relations between other countries.
