Once you turn off WiFi and APNs "poof" you can't see them. It is sucky.
I've been a long time user of Evernote and I can sy it is decidedly NOT "sucky". Evernote isn't intended as a pure note taking utility, it's more of a cloud based life organizer. The mobile app is an extension of the service meant to make it a bit easier to use as opposed to the mobile web site. Local caching might be a useful addition, but it would be a problem for users like me who have thousands of notes including many large web clips, photos and graphics. Saying Evernote is a "sucky" Android note app is like saying Word is "sucky " as a photo organizer. Anything can be "sucky" if your not using it correctly. If you want to see what it's really about, I suggest signing up (free) and trying it out via your pc. I highly suggest using the the extension available for most popular browsers. If you "get" Evernote that way, the mobile app will make total sense to you!
