Bought the Google Android G1 device. It's a solid, chunky and man-sized gadget. I am now developing an Android based application to investigate how easy development for this platform is. Enter SQLite, Eclipse and Xerial.
SQLite happens to have the largest deployment base of any database. Read the stats and weep. It is ideal as an embedded database, which is what I need for this project. So forget about stored procedures, evil platform/licensing constraints and redundant complexity. This sofware just works.
There are beautiful and easy to user JDBC compliant wrappers which should make the database integration simpler. The Android Eclipse PlugIn should make development a breeze.
