New wheels in the ultegra range

Anybody else noticed that the new ultegra hubs don't have the so called digital cone adjustment that the old ones had. 

No idea what is digital about it but it looked nice and convenient so I've unsure why it's gone? What's your opinion? 

Cheers

Don't know if you can get them seperately but the tech docs are on the Shimano website.
