Adrian: I recently saw a Dell add where they partner with Oracle and one can purchase an Oracle license for about $150/license. Don't know how that works out in a web environment or a "device licensing" scenario but that's not anywhere near as expensive as it used to be.
Also, Microsoft SQL Server can be had for about $5,000 (or less) for an unlimited license on a single processor.
