Where are the db files actually located? In the registry files? By the
way what is the registry named on this thing?
system.dat?

The Databases are in a hidden folder called Databases.

The registry is non-accessable at the file level

No, ActiveSync and some file explorers (like the one on Handheld PC) shows
it as a special folder, but in fact both registry and database tables are
not files, but managed directly in another part of the RAM, you can only
access them programatically.
