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

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.
