There are no ceiling fans! :D
Details, details... ::)

Wait, but there are ceiling fans in this new L&P, so we're halfway there, right? Feh, I still want my fire-breathing toddlers, cross-dressing butlers, and bodice-ripping animations.

jolrei:
If the kids can swing from the ceiling fans, I want!  Otherwise, meh.

Annette:
Bugger. Now we have to wait for a new no cd crack. Not that I have the game, yet but still. I wonder why they have done that.

Cerridwen:
This is what I've found so far.  

The ceiling fans spin.  There are two speed options. After you turn it on, then the menu changes to an option to "increase speed" or some such. If you choose that then the menu changes to "reduce speed" or some such wording.  You can see a slight change of speed rotation.  

There is also a new menu option added to all flowers.  Your sims now have an option to "smell" the flowers.  They get down and sniff them.  It seems to increase fun, however i did not notice the nature hobby symbol so I'm not sure if the
sim gets a nature enthusiasm boost or not.  

There is also a windmill and solar panels that according to the SP's manual "lower your Sims bills" and "save Simolions" but I have not yet tested that to see if it's true or just L&P.

Not enough new plants IMO wanted MOAR.  Tons of new walls, no new floors.   The new hair styles are OK. They are almost all Child through Elder with a couple exceptions. New terrain paints to give your yards a freshly mowed look.  

My big disapointment was the staircase. It is only one huge double staircase with a larger than normal foot print.  Very limited use for me.  I was really hoping it would be two so you could only use half of it for smaller houses.  

Will update if I find anything else of interest.

I bet they don't, because they forget to add FT code to them (never let programmers, working on some part of the game, know what other programmer teams are doing)

Hey, hey! It's Mansions & Gardens, isn't it? You'll have a HUGE mansion with a HUGE hall with a HUGE staircase in the middle, so your sims will pass the whole afternoon walking from the mailbox to the endtable on the fifth floor* to drop their cheaper bills. See how all this makes a lot of sense?
Oh, and the staircase will allow only one sim at once, while the others will wave their arms downstairs in frustration.

I'm disappointed that there is no giant butler statue shipped with all that stuff; it would be classy.
