This SQLite ADO.NET vNext provider works with Microsoft's August LINQ CTP.

The Summary: The ADO.NET 2.0 Provider for SQLite smokes them all by a far and wide margin.

Version 1.0.14 of the SQLite .Net Data Provider for ADO.NET 2.0/VS 2005 is out and includes design-time support. You can now create databases, design queries, and drag-and-drop tables to create typed datasets within Visual Studio 2005.

The ADO.NET 2.0 Provider for SQLite now fully supports the CompactFramework! Support begins with version 1.0.12 of the library.

The latest version of the SQLite.NET provider for ADO.NET 2.0 has been released. The biggest change in this version is the additional support for the Compact Framework.

In preparation for the upcoming Compact Framework file release (1.0.12 is in CVS and being tested), several changes have occurred in the library. The most significant of which involves the Full Framework version, which no longer requires a separate Interop DLL. The native sqlite3 codebase and the managed C# wrappers have now been merged into a single multi-module assembly.

The Compact Framework folks will still have to make due with two redistributable DLL's unfortunately.... read more
