title: Phonegap Offline Database
body: <p>I want to store some <strong>large</strong> offline data in user phone (more than 100 MB) in an <strong>encrypted</strong> database. If possible I also want to distribute the database pre-populated. I have also seen <a href="http://gauravstomar.blogspot.com/2011/08/prepopulate-sqlite-in-phonegap.html">this</a>.</p>
  
  <p>I know about the <a href="http://docs.phonegap.com/en/1.0.0/phonegap_storage_storage.md.html">webdatabase</a> thing, but because it is <a href="http://dev.w3.org/html5/webdatabase/">depreciated</a>, I am advised not to work with that. </p>
  
  <p>I also have seen some third party plugins such as <a href="https://github.com/chbrody/Cordova-SQLitePlugin">SQLite Plugin</a>, but it works only for iOS and Android devices, but I target 4 platforms (ios, android, blackberry, windows)</p>
  
  <p>Is there any other solution, other than writing down my own?</p>
