Using MonoTouch How do i save a PDF file from a url directly to iBooks?

At the moment I pass the PDF URL to the UIWebView and display it in the app. The PDF files are external and not included within the bundle.

I want to provide the user with the option to save the file to iBooks once it is displayed in the UIWebView.

I don't want to save the PDF file in the app itself I would like to view it in the UIWebView and add a button on the Nav bar; "Save to iBooks".

1 - So how do i detect if iBooks is installed?

2 - How do i save the PDF file into iBooks from the Nav bar?

I have found some references to saving the file locally in the app itself but I want to save it directly to iBooks.

I am not using XCode but Monotouch/Monodevelop.

Thanks - its a little confusing for a newbie to monotouch.

I've asked almost exactly the same question recently.

It's not for MonoTouch but will probably give you the answer.
