I cannot answer your specific question, but I cannot see how Mobile Me would be workable without a computer in the chain.  Don't you sync your iPhone on a computer somewhere/sometime? 
 
BTW, I meant to say that Mobile Me is pretty cool and I don't even have an iPhone.  All of our family calendars, contacts, email, etc, is right there, and I use the photo gallery to upload and host pics all the time.  Good stuff, and much improved from the former Dot Mac version.
