My preference for hand-held and embedded devices... at this time and
subject to change... is SQLite and adding a geoprocessing layer,
probably based on GDAL, in.

If we can use postGIS across most/all platforms it'll save us from

SQLite can also do a lot of the lifting for us. Access, believe it or
not, has been shimmed with some form of a spatial-awareness cloak. I'll
look into the resources needed to support that.
PostgreSQL w/ PostGIS has definitely the best GIS support of the options
mentioned here, but I'm afraid the memory and cpu footprint is way out
of range for most hand-held devices. I'm afraid even MySQL is too
resource hungry for those.
