we actually have several applications (Contacts, ToDo, Plucker Reader) which use
SQLite for the 770 and iirc it is already included in the SDK. I don't know if
it will be shipped with the final software package, but there will be a SQLite2
package. Having both libraries at the same time should be OK with the amount of
flash we have and SQLite2 is still maintained and this will continue in future.

But for new applications SQLite3 should be the better choice.
