Collect raw data data from various online query systems utilizing Annotation service functionality.If called as static i.e. ServiceManager$getIdMapList(...), a set of default services will be used to collect data from.

1 2	## S3 method for class 'ServiceManager' getDataFrameList(this, arrayType="menu", selection="menu", force=FALSE, graphics=TRUE, verbose=FALSE, ...)

`arrayType`	The Affymertix microarray name. If 'menu', display a set of all available array types allowing user to select one. If arrayType is an array name, the function performs the name correctness check. Default is 'menu'.
`selection`	The character vector of service names which data are to be retrieved. If "menu" displays the available choices according to the names of services encapsulated within the ServiceManager object. Default is 'menu'.
`force`	If TRUE forces the system to update the content of service data directory even if contained the data before.
`graphics`	If `TRUE` and selection='menu', the attempt to will be made to use graphical capabilities of the rChoiceDialogs package to select a subset of services to collect data from.
`verbose`	if TRUE enables diagnostic messages.
`...`	Not used.

A list of data frames each of which is a result of data retrieval for a particular service.
