Waterproof, lightweight and has built-in LEDs front and back with motion activited orange LEDs on arms - all via a USB rechargeable battery.
Won loads of plaudits - don't commute but would consider one if I did.

Does it have:
Zips that last longer than a month
Keep you dry
Breath a bit
Cover your bum

The rest is frippery

An Altura Night Vision jacket will be more visible at night, and probably more breathable.
Given the fact that so many wear rucksacks for their commute, a Hump would be the other obvious thought. Both these options have good quality reflective as the main feature. (Aside from the silly LED Humps, but they're another matter)

As above, a good fabric and good build is more important than silly little gadgets. Bike lights are so good these days, there's really no need for this.
