Thanks. That's what I was doing for some date fields now. Store the date in 
a well formatted string and then do conversions. But it becomes tough when 
you want to build a query "get me all records in last day" and the 
datastore for that object contains thousands of  records. With the strings, 
you need to iterate through all records, get a date and then do a 
comparison. 

With "date" data type, you can rely on appengine to return correct data.
