I usually just let my MUA actually do send the confirmation. If everyone

[sqlite] Thank you

[Philip Hofstetter]

Hello,
I'm just passing by to say a big fat "thank you" to the SQLite developers.
We actually managed to compile SQLite for an Intermec ck1 barcode 
scanner/mobile computer (running ucLinux). It required some hacking 
around as we were not able to get the configure script to run properly, 
but in the end it worked (with help of the patch here 
http://www.menie.org/georges/DragonEngine/sqlite.html).

What's most amazing is the incedible speed of SQLite. The scanner is 
powered by a 66 Mhz ARM CPU by Samsung and still, SQLite stays fast: 
Searching for a particular scanned barcode in a table containing ~1 
entries is done instantly in much less then half a second.

This fast speed, combined with the really small code size and the 
impressive feature set is extremely great.

Many thanks to the developers!
Philip
PS: Is there some way to donate something to the team? I unfortunately 
will not be able to contribute much code-wise, so I think, a donation is 
the least thing I can do.
