Copying programs from phone to phone

Hi,
I'm looking for some ideas on how to copy an installed program from a phone to another phone. I currently have it working so that a class in my program builds a .sis-file manually, but I'd like to hear if anyone has a better way of doing this. For example, if there's a way to save a copy of the extracted .sis-package in to the program folder. Or if there's a service in the SDK that can parse a .sis-file together. The point is of course to send the program in question to another phone via BT/IrDA from within the program (Send to phone->BT/IrDA etc.). |

I'm not trying to copy some random program that I have installed in my phone. Rather, I'm looking to offer a feature in my program that allows it to be sent from phone to phone. Since I control the DRM-settings of my own code and resources, DRM won't be a problem.
Just thought it should be made clear that I'm not looking for ways to illegally copy programs between phones.

The only real proof that I have is that I'm working on a program, that has a class that builds a .sis-file from the program components, copying them from all around the filesystem and then packing them into a .sis-file. It wasn't written by me and it's not entirely clear to me exactly how it works, but it does. We've tested the copying many times and it really does work.

So whats the best way to do this? ie copy a SIS from phone to phone via BT for example?
Is there some way to save to original when installation begins?
