Or rather: They use a trick we’ll also be using (’cause it has to look right), but it has nothing to do with manipulating the system’s line spacing. We don’t have access to that, and neither does iA. See, the user can’t manipulate it in Writer either…

No, they don’t.

iA Writer seems to manipulate exactly those variables

As much as I’d love to show you, the text system won’t allow that. In fact, the whole text system is so limited at the moment, that we’re seriously considering to ship without type options at all.

See, we can’t even manipulate line height/spacing…

We’ll do Dropbox-sync, of course, though we’ve not yet finalized its integration.

I’m waiting with bated breath, especially now that I’m a recent iPad owner. The key for em will be that you make it easy to get documents onto and off of the iPad easily (a.k.a. wi-fi)

It won’t sync with Simplenote, no.

Ok, what am I missing here? “Looks beautiful”? What does?

Seriously, are there some clues hidden in there that I don’t get? Does “simple note” mean it syncs with SimpleNote?
