android - How to install or get access to sqlite3 from adb shell

Question

I need a way to install or somehow get access to sqlite3 in the adb shell. I have rooted my device.

I've tried to find an answer but the closed I could come is: Why do I get a "sqlite3: not found" error on a rooted Nexus One when I try to open a database using the adb shell?

But I don't think it's good idea to push my windows sqlite3.exe on a linux system?

So is it possible to install the sqlite3 terminal browser somehow?

[SOLUTION]

From the different comments and some asking around at #android-dev (irc), I found a solution. First I copied the database file to my desktop. But fist I had to install BusyBox, because cp isn't included?!? After that ran I into the problem that I couldn't pull or push from anywhere but /sdcard/ . I could then use /sdcard/ as a "middle station" and pull/push my db.

Then I got exhausted! I really had to have my sqlite terminal explore. Then I got the idea to start the emulator pull the sqlite binary from /system/xbin/sqlite3. Then remount /system with rw:

# mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system

and push sqlite to the /sdcard/, and from there copy it to /system/xbin/

Now it works :D
