I did that on vacation a month ago. Got three days out of my 1.5-day
battery. There was no Sprint coverage, and the "free wifi" was pretty
shaky, so I airplaned the Pre to make it stop trying. Then, since
Evernote doesn't work offline, I used the calendar to keep my journal,
and cut/pasted the stuff to EN when I got back to cell service.
There are ways around most any shortcoming - but why EN has so far
fended off requests for offline to the smartphone absolutely baffles my
meager imagination.
Interesting addendum to Craig's observation about "why not all" -- I
just airplaned my Pre and started going back in the calendar. Stuff's
pretty intact back to january. Then it starts getting spotty. I can look
at my calendar in Google and one day will have everything, next day is
missing stuff. Weird. Remember with the old Treos would keep it all at
your fingertips, back 10 years or more?

If brute force isn't working, you're not using enough of it.
