Sure.
Pretty much stuff like downloading pictures directly to your computer (hence the "Pix-Place" or whatever they call it), moving audio flies from your computer to your phone, A LOT of bluetooth functions (beside basic hands free) are restricted due to Verizon not allowing OBEX bluetooth transfers, GPS limiting so you have to pay $9.99 a month to use the Verizon GPS software.
Verizon also installs their stock software on pretty much every standard phone. If you've ever seen the real Razr software, for example, compared to Verizon's software it is night and day how much smoother and nicer the stock Motorola software is.
This especially applies to the PDA type phones, but having to use Verizon's software to tether the phone with computer and share the internet connection, and paying a lot extra for a "data plan", certain file transferring and sync features are also disabled.
I think it is getting better now (being able to use a memory card to transfer media, for example) so maybe they are finally coming around.
