You can set your app to be run when a HotSync is attempted - then do what
you need to do & run the real hotsync that the user wanted - but that still
requires you to set up that hook before the hotsync happens.
Mind you, a just-installed app does get launched at the end of the HotSync
that loaded it, so you do get that opportunity to set up hooks before the
user runs you. In which case you might as well use the notification
manager, not the ugly hotsync-stealing hack.
