> As far as I know, you can download any of the Oracle versions 

Looks like you can download everything here:

Here's an excerpt from a comp.databases.oracle.server discussion:

---
what's the difference ?

personal oracle - oracle lite

As far as I remember,
---
Oracle lite doesn't let you export and import, so you can do cold
backups of your data but no exports !

Personal Oracle does allow exp and imp, but many of the 'full' options
are missing - partitioning, objects for example. (At least in PO 8.0.4
!)

It's been a while since we looked at O Lite, but we found the inability
to imp/exp a major drawback and went for PO where required.
---
Oracle lite as far as I remember only supports java stored procedures..
It
is
meant to havea very small footprint for PDAs and possibly embedded
applications
---

Let us know if anyone gets this working!
