*  Priced at $249  (does that include Excel?)

*  Windows only (at least, only Windows version listed)

*  Only connects to one version of Excel (at least only one version 
listed -- will upgrades for subsequent versions of Excel be supplied 
free?)

* Seems to intended primarily to add Mathematica capabilities to Excel, 
rather than the reverse"

   "Mathematica Link for Excel is an essential tool for finance 
professionals, business professionals, life scientists, engineers, 
physical scientists, social scientists, educators, and others who want 
to use Excel and need to expand its computational and graphical 
capabilities."

*  Presumably both Excel and Mathematica must be running (or accessible) 
to use it.
