I think you are referring to the Person.cs class correct?

I at first write the Person.cs class with C# native type but what I 
found myself doing all the time was converting to and from native to 
NSString all over the place so thought that made the code messy.  For 
instance in the SetValueForKey method.  If those methods should be using 
string instead of NSString I could change them when I find them.

I totally agree with you on the C# 3 features.  One of the questions 
that I was going to post was how to get around the NSDictionary use and 
convert back and forth to native Dictionary types easily.  I guess I am 
missing that part to start using more of the C# features.  An example 
would definitely be welcome on how to go about that.
