Kineret seem to offer a bit more, including an Internet Connection Wizard with a pool of Israeli ISPs not available in Knoppix.
Also, you might want to consider other alternatives. Morphix for example is a modular Live CD distro that lets you have a CD with different defaults (KDE, GNOME, XFC etc.) GNOPPIX has GNOME only and from what I've seen boot flawlessly on my system with nVidia, Orinoco WiFi and intel-i810 audio. More information on Knoppix based Live distros can be found here: http://whatsup.org.il/article.php?sid=1558 Knoppix is based on Debian. The are similar CD's based on Slackware BTW, like Slacklive.
