More portable and 4 channels.
I have one and I can't recommend it. The firmware/software is complicated to use and update. It's not bad or anything but it's not my goto scope. I picked up a Rigol DSO this season and am really impressed with it. Definitely out of the price range being asked for though. The Rigol can output to LabView, which is nice though I haven't used it yet.

I used to own a USB based DSO from Parallax that fit the description of what is being sought. It was very basic but it worked well for most of my college projects. Having something with protocol sniffing is nice these days though.

Honestly, for $70-$80, try one of them out and let us know.
