Radley, you are only partly right, partly wrong IMO. The key, as Adam points out, will be sinchronization. Most PIM users do syncro with their PCs. The iliad is both master and slave for USB connection and has ethernet and wifi. So it is a new piece, it can syncro instead of the PC but it can also attach to other sources. You get a kind of mesh network, different ways to access to your agenda.
