Adjustable brightness, and your choice of MOA dot size. As far as price/performance goes, hard to beat, IMO.

Some do want an actual scope, though. I hunt with a friend that has to use a scope because of his aging eyes. He went with a Weaver 1-4X24 with their turkey reticle, and he hasn't looked back. Loves it. I haven't hunted with his gun, but I did do some shooting with it, and it is a pretty sweet little setup. As long as my eyes allow me to go without a traditional scope, though, I will. To each their own.
Can you leave it on all day or do have to turn it on when the birds start coming in? I have been thinking about getting one for my old mossberg. I don't shoot 3.5's but the 3" turkey loads back a good enough wallup for me lol
