Well, as details remain few, we'll have to wait and see, but:
It's small enough to actually be portable without being a bother.
It's powerful enough to perform all regular PDA-type functions.
It's a journal, organizer, calander, etc
It perhaps will allow for web-based function such as blogging, forum-posting, tweets, facebook, etc.
If done right, the drawing tool could be great for those interested, especially if they intergrate that with ability to manipulate photos and whatnot....photo-shop like. Add potential to attach/send/post such photos...nice. It's got a camera after all.
As an e-reader it will be very similar to holding a paperback, and present in the same manner.
Stylus w/ writing recognition is sweet, especially when combined with other features.
Given headphone-jack, have to assume it will also serve as MP3 and equivalent player, as well as playing audio-books.
I'm assuming there will be a web-browser, though I'm not sure that was clarified and I can't watch the videos at work to know if there was any info given on that.
Probably some more I'm missing, but again, it's a bit too soon still. I'm excited, but also holding out for better info on full functionality. I've some preliminary numbers on price at around $399-$599, but who knows.
I think there's some great potential here.

It's a dual screen PDA. What does it have that you want so much?

Seems to me, the dual screens are actually going to make it less comfortable to hold and use, too.

That's fair enough, but you described a PDA in everything but the dual screen.
