Not just a second antenna port, but a completely separate second ADC.

I.e., it is the equivalent of two Icom 7300, and with better front end filtering than the 7300.

I have one on "reserve" since January, with the plan of using it for things like diversity RTTY, to complement my Hermes and AFE SDRs.

The 7610 may not work for the SO2R operators, though.  I don't think current Icom firmware permits simultaneous transmit and receive, but we don't know for sure since no one has been able to get their hands on one.
