I thought the "Once a day" statement was speaking about the full backup, and it's a setting that can be changed. While it's not spelled out I feel it's unlikely that Microsoft would not implement push e-mail and appointments. Given that one can't use Exchange and this service on the same device I'm a bit inclined to think that the My Phone service is a packaging of Exchange service plus some other services and will have many of the same behaviours as exchange (with respect to mail and appointment syncing). But this is all speculation/expectation.
