coredata

Hi Everyone:

I am looking for some way to sync a online XML file with my iPhone application and only download the newest changed items. Each item is marked with a date attribute, so I assume this is possible. I have heard that Core Data can accomplish this task, but I am unsure of the suggested method and how to approach implementing it.

Thanks for any help.
