Dan, Altuit's plugin, unless Im missing something, is _not free_. The core
technology for SQLite is free, but I imagine that Altuit has added some
significant value to make it worth the $99/$149 they are charging.

Now you could take the free SQLite code base and make your own plugin. But
then, that is a significant amount of work and probably your time has a
significant value attached to it (relative to the prices that Altuit or
Paradigma are charging for their solutions).
