I just got Froyo for my Droid on Saturday.  I'm not sure what I'm 
missing, so I guess ignorance is bliss.  I know that tethering requires 
an extra charge, and Flash support will be available in another update 
due in a few weeks from Verizon.

The biggest problem I have is connecting to my WPA2 OpenWRT install.  I 
had to back it down to WPA instead and is working fine.

As for benefits, voice actions is really nice, and moving applications 
to SD lets me free up a lot of space.  Applications seem snappier and 
having the two additional home screens lets me drop in more widgets.
