The way I understand it is this. When you hit publish with a post dated entry either the ping happens but there is nothing for the services to see OR the ping just doesn't happen. You need the plug-in to keep note of the posts that have been pinged and the ones that haven't. The link I posted adds a couple of fields to your post table and relies on cron to do the checking and eventually carry out the ping at the right time, when the actual post becomes live or just after it.
Check out the Wordpress support forum. They know more about it than I do
