Difference What is the difference between Point and shootpoint-and-shoot and SLR cameras?

I have a very good (I assume) point and shoot high end camera with me. Model is Panasonic Fz35. I think it has very nice features and using the camera in manual mode is nice too.

However, with all the nice in-built features in my camera, Cancan I say itsit's equivalent to any base SLR camera (ignoreignoring additional lens for SLRs)  ? Can I use my camera as an SLR itself? If not, what basic things are missing from my camera to any basic SLR?

In short, what differentiates a high end point and shoot camera from an SLR?
