I'm not sure what all is gone other than the USB port since I haven't bought one. There is a list of omissions in the mailing list archive, though. One other thing I forgot to mention. There is no voltage regulation or over-voltage protection on the board. The 5.0 volt input goes directly to the TI power management chip. My white BB would not boot on 5.1 volts. It required exactly 5.0 volts. I ended up taking a 9 volt wall wart and hacking an LM7805 voltage regulator into the positive lead. I did not test it for under-voltage but I imagine it's just as sensitive in that direction.
