Detailed Review:
The biggest advantage of the B+ over the older model B is the addition of 2 more USB ports. This removes the need to constantly lug a USB hub around just on the off chance that you want to plug a memory stick, WiFi dongle or even a Rocket Launcher into your Pi.
Other than that, a Pi is a Pi. I'm yet to experience the raw power of a model 2, but I've always been happy with the performance of a Pi. I never expected it to be a supercomputer and so I'm willing to wait for it to catch up with me.
Sadly, I haven't had chance to play with the camera yet, though I do like the way the camera can be integrated in to the case. This makes the whole package more versatile.
