title: store data without using database in android
body: <p>i have to make an android application in which i need to download a lot of data from the server which is sent to me via XML. i then need to parse the XML and then display the extracted information. </p>
  
  <p>To avoid making the application slow, i have decided to break my XML down into small parts.. so that i can only call the part that i want, this would limit the information that i am receiving.</p>
  
  <p>My question is once that i have parsed the XML data where do i store it ( except for a db ) until my UI is rendered? On the iPhone there is something called user default where in we can store such information. What would be the equivalent in android?</p>
  
  <p>thank you in advance.</p>
