What it doesn't have from your list are the "for life" things, cadence/pace, battery life indicator. Then again, you could get "for life" readings by never resetting the computer before each ride.

Another way to get both "for life" and "per ride" info would be to use dual cyclometers - you'd actually only need one magnet.

And a cheap way to get cadence is to buy a $3 eBay special cyclometer and mount the magnet on your chainring and the sensor on your frame then set the wheel size to something appropriate. There's info specific to this idea on the Instructables website, here.
I like the Planet Bike Protege 9.

One might not need the cadence forever. So, the cheap extra computer trick might be a good temporary solution.
