I'll get the chance to analyze the service structure of the Android
SDK within the short future.  Things will start falling into place
over time and you answer is probably
suited to a response that I was expecting.  Thanks F. Weiss.

I agree, that would not be that useful of a solution and wouldn't
consider it, although there are some great advantages for having
mobile
databases for people out in the field.

Technology is moving along quite quick, but yeah, I assumed that it
wasn't as simple as pumping java applications through a conversion
tool and then voila!
These were realistically just examples.  In the commercial world why
would someone want to have an expensive handheld data system when they
can just access a database online through the internet medium or via a
mobile phone service.
