I'm still not sure about the soft buttons myself, but we'll see.
The rest of your issues are dependant on the user.
I really don't care about the loss of wifi sync as I never used it and the BT functionality will be fine for me as well, especially considering there's supposed to be added bt support for keyboards and mice built in. I found this, "The device supports standard profiles such as OBEX, DUN, serial port, headset and HID (keyboards and mice)" here

Not sure what you mean about the menu layout.
As for VGA support...I'll assume you're wanting trueVGA, which is completely useless to about 90% of vga ppc users including myself. Programs are coming out that take full advantage of the vga display without hacking the os, the technical preview of Netfront 3.3 is an excellent example.
The slower performance will probably mean slightly slower load times for some, but most of my programs are already installed in BIS. Besides, having a full 64 megs of ram to cache the os and your apps should actually make many things run faster. As I understand it, wm5 also includes drive caching which should be a welcome enhancement to microdrives.
