The main differences are:

 - 800k 3.5 drive built in rather than 140k 5.25
 - Faster processor.  4 mHz rather than 1.  Actually faster than a stock GS
 - Serial ports changed to miniDin8 from Din5
 - Revised keyboard layout - matches GS but without keypad
 - support for "dumb" 3.5 drives.  No need to use a UniDisk, but will work.
 - No 40/80 switch above keyboard (no big loss)
 - No headphone jack
 - Memory expansion connector inside (the later IIc had this too)
 - Internal power supply.  i.e.- no need for the brick-on-a-rope PS.
 - Platinum color

That's all I can think of off the top of my head, but there may be others.
