Re: wrong German "Umlauts" character set

	I forget offhand .. the trick for the XML has always been to 
ensure the encoding and localization is set right; as you are bypassing 
and going straight to PDB (as you should), I forget how it determines the 
character sets for encoding. The usual trick is to ensure the handheld is 
encoded the same as the desktop .. if your'e using any localization hacks 
or the like, it can be trouble. But if its a German desktop setting, a 
German actual Palm OS device, then it should all 'just work' ...
