Seriously love this product. What the Realm guys are missing is the fact that Couchbase Lite is really a replication protocol overlayed SQLite. Couchbase Lite did not always use SQLite and is in the process of switching to ForestDB as the underlying persistent store. As far as API's go, I have not seen a more intuitive design than CBL's. It almost makes too much sense. Once you get Sync Gateway setup, you have a mini iCloud. Watch the CloudKit presentations and you'll see that CBLite solves what Apple is leaving up to developers as far as Sync goes.

There is another produce coming out from Cloudant very similar, but with even more friendly api IMHO

I think that's because Cloudant's solution is the same replication protocol (CouchDB) talking to it's hosted databases. Thank's for pointing this out, I didn't know about.
