I don't see what this phone has that other phones won't. The MotoX will have a dual-LTE antenna. The iPhone already has an SSD (though it doesn't enhance performance over the drives that the Galaxy S4 uses). If they have the silicone anode batteries available, it's a good bet they'll be available for most high-end phones.
I'm not saying this isn't cool. But, I don't see where this phone has anything that the other ones definitely won't have.

exactly, it seems like very little being offered and they are asking more more than just a phone at a high price plus a contract. they also want 32 million dollars to make it
i bet the iphone 6 will even outperform it. so sad

We must not be enemies. Though passion may have strained, it must not break our bonds of affection. The mystic chords of memory will yet swell the chorus when again touched, as surely they will be, by the better angels of our nature.

That's actually an interesting question. It says: "Silicon-anode Li-Ion battery." Though, if you are using the full desktop OS and not connected to a power source, I assume that would drain the battery pretty fast. So hopefully the battery is pretty good for the mobile side.
