See the 'ExpressionSetIntroduction.pdf' in the Biobase package

  http://bioconductor.org/packages/2.3/bioc/html/Biobase.html

I don't know how to parse the PhenoData into a data.frame, but once
done likely you'll be able to do

  phenoData <- new("AnnotatedDataFrame", pData=PhenoData)
  eset <- new("ExpressionSet", exprs=exprs, phenoData==phenoData)
