hmm... I dont have "bridge" on my computer. Dont even know what it is.
So I guess I would have to disagree that it is on every computer,
whereas flash and therefore apollo almost certainly will be :)

mysql is clearly more robust - and complex - than sqlite, which is
exactly the point. Its overkill, with the single benefit of being
familiar. But you will not be able to port code since sql is always
tied into the language that is used to access it, like php, or java or
whatever. AS3 will be a new language environment for accessing
databases, so there will not be much portability other than data
files, which isnt much of a benefit.
