"With Bill Gates' announcement earlier this year that Windows Home Server would be available as a 'system builder' product (that means 'OEM' to most hardware geeks), enthusiasts and system builders alike have been looking forward to its release. With several different rumors being floated last week regarding when Windows Home Server would hit store shelves, we checked in with Microsoft to get the full and somewhat-confusing story. The short version is: it's already out in the wild, but catching a copy from your favorite reseller may prove tricky for at least two more weeks."

"Witty and useless comment aside, I could have sworn I asked if there was any other features I was unaware of. "
I don't think people will spend much effort answering you. For one thing, you start out saying, "I don't mean to knock the product or MS", yet you used the oh-so-clever "MS" in your post's title. Also, your posts smacks of the all to common OSNews phenomenon in which every time a Microsoft product is discussed here, someone has to chime in saying, "Oh this does nothing that <insert software here> doesn't do, so who cares?"
Now, you may be sincerely looking for info on this product, but it may be that people are tired of dealing with this type of question.
I'll just point you to the WHS blog. There's lots of good info there:

Thurott also has a pretty good article (though I've seen better, but I can't remember where)

And of course, there's wikipedia:
