Numbers disappoints. Still stuck w/ Excel :(

Right off the bat, it doesn't import any of the sorting you may have put in to a spreadsheet. Nor does it support data validation or conditional formatting. There's a pretty big list of other "missing features" being constructed on the Apple forums. I need these features so I have to keep excel around for the time being.
For basic spreadsheets and graphs, it's pretty good, albeit kind of slow (at least on a G4). Maybe a point upgrade will resolve some of these issues. Probably not until Numbers '09 though . . . .
