QR TAG - iCal and Vcard

Is it possible to create a QR Code tag that sends a vCard and dynamically adds an event to the calendar that is based on today's date + 90 days?

What if you sent the qr code to a landing page where it identified it was a smartphone and then send it a vcard and a vcalendar event? Then you could theoretically send the phone all the data you want once it visits your page with programming.

You can create a "VEVENT" (a type of vCard)

BEGIN:VEVENT
SUMMARY:My Event
DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20120125
DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20120126
LOCATION:Hollywood
DESCRIPTION:Having a party
END:VEVENT

The date is written as YYYYMMDD - so you can set it for 90 days in the future. However, there's no way to create a code which has both a calendar and addressbook entry.

At best, you could put the email address into the DESCRIPTION field.
