What does the 8773 update give you

[SteelSteve]

Well it appeared that my Lumia 710 died (later was able to get it working again by doing a hard reset), so T-mobile sent me a replacement (refurb) phone. My original would not install the 8773 update; however the replacement came with it. Trouble is the only difference I can see is the internet sharing option. Supposedly I thought we would be able to resize live tiles, however this phone does not give me that option. Holding down a live tile only gives me the standard unpin option. Does the 8773 update provide this functionality?

You'll get the tile resize ability with WP 7.8. And yes, I think 8773 includes Internet sharing.

8773 includes, but is not limited to: internet sharing, voice note attachments in messages, call forwarding, and a plethora of apps from Nokia. Those are: Camera Extras, Playto, Nokia Music and one more that escapes me at the moment. 8773 also brings compatibility with apps. ie: those aforementioned.

Well, that one was fixed in 8107.
