Thanks for the lead Mark. I really appreciate it. I hope it gives me some insight. So, is my assessment right in that the HttpPost/ HttpClient route is not possible for this sort of thing currently? I see there used to be a MultipartEntity class which was removed with the 1.0 SDK. That looks like it might have been what I needed. Anyway thanks again.
