I'm afraid I'm going to see more and more software going Lion only because I'm guessing there's no easy way for developers to add new Lion features and keep it backwards-compatible.

The repeated text legend "All Day Event" (for all-day events, which I have, as I suspect many others also have, many of), should be made to be less intrusive, greyed-out, or just indicated by a symbol.
You can toggle the tasks pane: you should also be able to toggle the events pane, so you can show just tasks.

I've just found out there is a known (now) bug regarding the recent build and BusyCalc {SIC}. We're working hard to fix it right now."
On April 18, another reply, "There is one in the works, I don't have an ETA on its release yet."
Soon I realized that this was due to Apple's switch to CalDAV, meaning iCal has to be open to sync with BusyCal. On June 18 I asked for a refund of the upgrade price based on the above and the fact that BusyCal support is STILL prominently displayed on the site (any calendaring app will have to have iCal open) and that based on the promise of a fix I have been waiting for 2 months for a fix.
The response was that they are unable to process a refund 60 days after purchase, as they use Fastspring. If they hadn't told me there was a known bug (which there really isn't) and promised to fix it, I would have been able to get a refund at that time. It's not the lousy $15 or whatever I spent. It's the fact that Second Gear was not truthful in their Emails or on their website and strung me along until it was too late.

Saying it suits your needs betternis another thing entirely. Both can exist for those who needs the features offered by each. No reason to say one is better than the other, they fill different niches.

I believe that is why the dev has not gone out and thought about an iphone app for an application that is made to be on your desktop, Today. The goal of today is to have quick access via menubar or hotkey to enter tasks and events w/o having to open your calendar application on desktop and enter the info. It is just a quick way of entering tasks/events and showing those that are coming soon. The iphone has these features and it would be more work to have a separate application named Today on your iphone to enter info you could have entered just by opening the calendar app in your iphone.
I know it seems like going in circles but your desktop is cluttered and can multi-task, your iphone really can't unless altered... hope this makes some sense. I have no idea what the developer's reason is for not making an iphone app but this is my explanation of why I don't see one necessary.

Ability to hide events, just like you can hide tasks (so you can see only tasks).
Ability to hide overdue tasks. Sometimes you only want to see what is on today's agenda, not yesterday's, etc. Keeps the list from getting too long, too fast.
Built in search.
