I hope so. That was something I was REALLY looking forward to being able to do since I use a Powerbook (soon to be MacBook) and am not always plugging in to my external drive.
We'll see though. I have seen that there is a hack that you can use to get it to work, but hopefully Apple will include it in an update in the not-too-distant future. I may put off buying a new computer until they do.
The phone has 256MB of RAM and a 1GHz processor, which do the job reasonably well, though the Anna interface will likely leave something to be desired for many smartphone users.

Any chance for a future update to include the ability to use Time Machine over a USB connected drive over an Airport Base Station?
It's technologically feasible, I'd wager it just didn't make it into the launch release. We'll have to see if Apple adds it in later.
