Alex,

I have the same problem you document below, so looked into your ODBC reference. 
 However, it looks like they want to sell me a $2000 router software package to 
work with the iOS.  What I need is a framework (much like easyDB, but allowed 
to be used on a commercial product).  Did I miss-read the web site?
