dual receive
not all the mic connectors going hot at the same time
full computer control
an off setting on the AGC.

how many "one" things do we get? :-)

Don't get me wrong I really like my the 706MkIIG. I hear that they may be  
coming out with a 706Pro version, if so maybe many of our "one" likes may  
be added. If so I hope that they don't change it in a way that will upset  
it's balance of features and capabilities.
