my turn to say "Exactly".
hehe.. :P you would need a load of extra space to do it locally.. :(
you need to create a NEW prc file, replicating the contents and then
add extra binary resources with a type of 'beam' maybe??
then when you start the app on the new device, it detects that there
are 'beam' resources and converts them to databases using
DmCreateDatabaseFromImage(). on completion? delete the prc that was
beamed (as you replicated itself on the other device)
messy coding :)) and too much dependancy on memory.. :(( you would
need 2x the space free to successfully do it..

yep :)
ahh.. maybe.. one day when i get some time.. i write it ;)) hehe
