Point is, you want to be able to mark interesting passages while you're reading and collect the references later, as you need them. Whether you prepare the reference metadata off-device when you download the item (if that's how you get it) or on doesn't matter so much as the fact that at some point you're going to want to be able to select from among your various notes and generate a reference list. That's the part I'd like to have the system take care of for me. Yes, I'll probably actually write the research document on my laptop. But as I'm doing so, I want the device next to me so I can flip around through different reference sections I've marked, select the items for export, and then get them in some kind of usable list at the end. Does that make sense? (Maybe I'm the only one who thinks this way, after all....)
