No, that's right - the library project won't do you any good in this case.

What I do is provide the user an upgrade path from free to paid that exports
the free data to the SD card, checking for its existence of course, and then
imported to the paid version. This is done once so you don't have to rely on
the SD card being there all the time.

Though I can't imagine anyone NOT having one. For a while a I had a bug that
would crash the app if there was no SD card installed - I never once got an
email or comment about. So you can be pretty sure pretty much everyone has
one, especially since most phones come with one installed already.

Make sure to check for it, but it's a pretty sure way to do what you need.
