I would imagine this is because the iPhone/Pod/Pad is expected to be a slave not a master.

Why would this always be the case? I'd expect the mobile device to have more accurate/newer information than the stationary device, most of the time. If you're networking at lunch or a conference, and you put all that info into your phone, why wouldn't that be synced with the PC instead of the other way around?

Because that's how it was with iPods.

iOS5 changes it more over to the iOS device though
