You can grab PDO sqlite binaries for PHP 5.0 from here:
http://snaps.php.net/win32/PECL_5_0/

We won't be providing ext/sqlite for sqlite 3 because the sqlite 3
library and file format are NOT backwards compatible with sqlite 2.

Since we already have sqlite 3 support as part of PDO extension, we
won't be doing any further work to provide additional sqlite 3
extensions.

Description:
------------
I have read most of the bugs on Sqlite 3.x for PHP.  The concencous
from the PHP developers appears to be that Sqlite 3.x is not necessary
since it will be included in PDO.  In addition, 3.x support can be
enabled on Linux by recompiling.

Unfortunately, I am using Windows.  I am sure it is possible to
recompile PHP on windows, but it sure doesn't sound like fun.  I would
like to propose moving SQLite support into an extension for PHP on
Windows and compiling a 2.x and 3.x extension.  That would allow
windows users to use the new libraries without compromising backwards
compatability.

As for the PDO argument, I think it is important to recognize that a
lot of us are using PEAR:DB, ADODB, Creole, etc and that PDO support in
these DB abstraction layers may be a while in coming.  It would be nice
to user their native support for SQLite and get the benefits of 3.x as
well.

I realize that this is probably beating a dead horse, but I felt my
perspective was a little different.  Thanks.
