For me there are no innovating features, so far:
a) WiFi was alredy aviable on the PRS 950, and it was (with the wrong price) a big mistake not to implement it on PR650; with the WiFi on the T1 they have corrected an error of the PRS 650; the second error of this last model was, as alredy said, the price, not even comparable with the Kindle and more evident after the Nook touch and the Kombo touch;
b) font size choices are alredy possible installing PRS+ on the PRS 950, 650, 350 and other models (that allow to use not only 6 fonts and shows the time during reading);
c) multi-touch is only the possibility to enlarge the text (without reflowing it), alredy possible. They haven't even implemented a side touch that allow to turn pages (as the Nook Touch).
So far, the T1 is not very innovative (except for the price) and, on same aspects, is, on the contrary, involutive (plastic body, pen not included in the device).
