Which is exactly what Palm(One or Source) could do and release open-source if they were serious about helping developers overcome this problem. For many apps I suspect that a simple wrapper for the Dm functions would do the job, although I haven't investigated. Has anyone that's taken this step got an opinion on whether it can be implemented as a wrapper lib without code changes?
