Minecraft Pocket edition also saves its savedata in chunks, which is stored together in a file called chunks.dat. The file seem to have a header that specifies the size of a chunk in 4kb blocks and the number of blocks it is offset by. The chunks then have a 4 byte header followed by 32k of chunk data, 32k of lighting, and 16k of block metadata.
A level from the pocket edition can be found in the description of http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mx56PNBx4Bo
