You have to be careful when converting, because alot of PocketPC function
use UNICODE values (wide, ie LPWSTR). I've used CString alot for Pocket PC
and haven't had any memory problems. Not sure how much overhead CString
uses, but I doubt a lot. I've coded alot of classes that are cross platform
by using either CString or TCHAR.
