Basically, premium-economy is the economy-class seat with a slightly nicer armrest and a footrest.

It's really too bad that Delta didn't at least use space it gained by using narrower seats to separate the four seats in the center section of premium-economy into pairs of two with a privacy divide between each pair. Siting in the middle two seats will be far from a "premium" experience, especially if you don't know your neighbors.
