I have never worked with PIX, so I really don't know. IOS does have
inspection, NAT, VPN, lock-and-key (access-lists activated by user
authentication), etc. But it is kind of hard to setup... Maybe PIX is a
little easier. I recollect hearing about a "cryptography board" for the
PIX platform, which could be one of the differences, as IOS does crypto
by software.
But I suspect Cisco plans IOS being its sole platform, and I would not
be suprised it discontinuing PIX.
