Hello all!
I am new to Corona SDK (1 week or so) and I am really excited about the simplicity and the performance that I am able to achieve! I come from a AS3/FLEX background and have built an app for AppStore but most of time was consumed in optimization tricks in order to have an acceptable frame rate in my navigation system :(
So, I would like to ask 2 questions:

a) What is the equivalent of a scale9Grid in Corona? I mean how is it possible to scale correctly my complex .png graphics in order to show correctly among iPad, iPhone 3/4 and all the different resolutions of Adroid devices out there?

b) How can I achieve something like this in Corona SDK:

var authSvc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
authSvc.objectEncoding = ObjectEncoding.AMF0;
authSvc.addEventListener(NetStatusEvent.NET_STATUS, onNetStatus);
authSvc.connect("myURI");       
authSvc.call("serviceMethod", new Responder(onResponse));
