Richard, thanks for clarifying.
I feel like such a moron :-)
I'm fighting with this for such a long time - and it's so obvious...

A couple more questions:
- Suppose I have my main.org, containing a tasklist.
     Is it correct that, on the mobile device, I can only change status, 
priority & tags
     But I can't add a new *task* or item??
- I'm also confused about file location(s)
     1. org-mobile-directory "~/Dropbox/MobileOrg
     2. org-mobile-inbox-for-pull "~/git/org/from-mobile.org"
     I've also read that "By default all agenda files (as listed in 
org-agenda-files)" are pushed to MobileOrg using Push / Pull
     Is it then true, that e.g. agenda files located in ~/git/org/ will 
ALSO by synched to MobileOrg?
- Lastly (for now :-) )
     What is the purpose of the "Show app badge" in Settings on the iPad
     Do you have any plans for a HD version? (iPad)

Thanks a lot for this tremendous App!
And your precious help :-)
