Here are just some of the features....

*Up to 6 alternate boost mapping functions with specific boost mapping for FWD, RWD, AWD, Bike and Drag racing applications.
*A specifically developed Correction Feature eliminates boost drop-off at high RPM
*Boost levels can now be mapped against TIME or RPM
*Special gate pressure function eliminates wastegate creep
*Peak Hold/Max Boost Recall function monitors the boost and RPM

are there any boost controllers out there that can do it based on MPH?

Ok, I have a newb question. How does this controller actually adjust the amount of boost? Are there wires that feed into the BOV (or is WG) and what???? Confused.

Just like any other EBC.

The EBC controls a solenoid that determines when the boost reference on your wastegate sees pressure. When pressure builds up to whatever you've asked the EBC to hold, it triggers the solenoid and the wastegate reference sees pressure and opens. The smallest amount of boost you can run is whatever your wastegate spring is set at (minus whatever pressure losses you have along the way, depending on where your reference is set up at).
