 Hi,

 hase anybody running a mysql database or a firebird database on the
 freerunner?
 Is the freerunner fast enough for a full SQL-Database, or is it only
 fast ennough for single user databases like SQLLite?
 (i know that SQLLite is not single user... but it hase no tcp/ip server)

 My idea was to programm a  Messanger/Phonebook/Dialer Programm with a
 SQL-Backend in free pascal.

 The reason to use mysql or firebird in stead of SQLLite would be, that i
 could connect to the database per network and edit the data in a easy
 way over a frontend on my computer.  (without mounting the device in any
 way, or programm a syncManager)

  Or would you say  don't do the hole wheel again ... wait for the
 FSO interface for phonebook etc. . So we all will use the same backend.
 And programm a server/client app for easy editing and storing the sms,
 addresses etc. on your computer.

I've run mysql on some very skinny x86 systems without problems, so I don't 
think it's unreasonable. It's in OE and compiles for FSO milestone5. Give it a 
try!

If you install Debian, you can install all the SQL server supported by 
Debian.
I think Freerunner can keep a running instance of MySQL without problems.
