Other than style points, what does a $200 helmet really buy you?

The Prevail looks like a nice upgrade. When I need to replace my helmet, that will probably be the one.

Well, a stupid accident in Florida a couple of weeks ago made it time to replace the 2D. (My noggin was fine, though. So, thanks Specialized.) Got a Prevail, but haven't ridden with it yet. (It's in the single digits -- farenheit -- here right now.)
Claimed weight (it's a large) 248. Actual weight, 254.
PS - what's the helmet that Euskaltel is wearing in the TDU? have gotten so used to seeing them in the Catlike, that the new lid was startling.

I do a lot of climbing, and when you are grinding up a hill dripping sweat the last thing you want is your glasses keeping cool air off of your face and dripping sweat all on the insides. I guess I will have to put them in my pocket. This sucks.
