        Yes, I count 3 tiers. The problem as I see it is that the source of  
your data is not a connection to an SQL RDBMS, but to a web service.  
This means that while you can certainly use the UI and modified  
bizobjs, our data tier will be useless to you.

        The base bizobj is dabo.biz.dBizobj. You'll probably have to create  
your own custom methods to talk to your backend service, and then  
parse the results into a dabo.db.dDataSet, which is essentially a  
tuple of records, where a record is a dict representing one row of data.

        I hope that's enough to get you started, or to at least ask more  
questions.
