This is only partially true. The Date Book data is in a separate
database, not inside the Date Book application itself. There are
already several third-party apps on the market that read and write the
Date Book database.

The SDK that you download from the Palm Devzone contains the Date Book
source code. You can modify it to do what you want. You can also take
just the part that reads and writes the database, and add it to your
own app.
