Well, how did it work out for you? For me, not so well.

I was able to export a couple lists to XML using hs3convert.exe. I then 
copied those to the card on my android phone and ran AndShoBBer. I found 
where to import lists and mavigated to the files, but AndShoBBer would 
just hang on the process. I waited until the phone said the process had 
to force close or send a report. I sent one report and tried a few more 
times. Later I found that lists were created, but I could find no items 
in them, though categories seemed to have been created, as well as stores.
Part of me thinks I'm missing something on how to use the app, and part 
of me thinks there's a bug.

I'm eager to see this develop, though.
