(Sorry Jos, I forgot to CC kde-promo and kde-pim on this and ended up only 
sending it to you)

Actually I recall this thread from a while back. I was quite busy then tending 
to exams but now that they're over I decided to spend this morning fixing the 
page up. I've made it much more concise whilst still keeping all the details 
intact. I've moved things around here and there where they would be more 
appropriate and removed some of the repetitive things.

It's now a nice lean page for anybody to read and immediately understand 
exactly what Akonadi is, why it's beneficial, and how KDE loves its users and 
understands the possible issues that may occur.

There we go:

Comments much appreciated.
