Are you sure you want to prevent a user from changing the prefs of every
application rather just your application? If it is just yours, then once
your app decides it is time to prevent further changes to its own prefs, why
not just disable the controls on your prefs form (or something similar)? I
can imagine this sort of thing being done if the handheld is being managed
by a central admin server, but it seems odd if it isn't.
Also, the prefs databases ("Saved Preferences" and "Unsaved Preferences")
are not in ROM, they are in normal storage memory.
