I've got an application that can currently import/export records with
MemoPad, and I'm in the middle of thinking things through for making it
work with Cobalt.

My current thinking is to not attempt the memo import with that version,
as a) access to schema databases is apparently ARM-native-only right now
and b) I'm not planning an ARM-native build of the app anytime soon.
Export is used a lot more often than import, anyway, so it's not that
critical.  Is there a better way than checking for an OS version later or
equal to 6.0 to see if I should disable that functionality?

As far as exporting, if beaming a string using the .txt extension for a
filename will still work, then I can do that instead of inserting records
myself.  That works for single records, though, but what about multiple?
I know that 4.0 and later exchange libraries can send multiple records in
a standard way, but I also have seen version 3.5 devices where MemoPad has
a Beam Category option... does anyone how is that done in that case?  I'd
like to make the code as universal as I can for that function... I hate
special cases when they're not really needed.

In the beginning there was nothing.  And the Lord said, "Let there be
 Light!"  And there was still nothing.  But you could see it.
