A good start. But...

The USP of Evernote isn't that you can take notes from anywhere as much as anything can be a note (An audio clip, your current location, a picture etc) and that can be very well organised, grouped and saved in the cloud and offline on demand.

It's basically a "database" for the non techies: Save everything in there and query by tags, organise by books or search in the content and meta data.

And that there is an app for most platforms. I'd actually love to see an open source version of OneNote (pen based abilities, search performance and OCR capabilities) more than Evernote.
Yup, mobile was the first thing I looked for. I can barely stand most browser apps anymore.
