Of course, you can install the latest version (currently 3.5.9) of
SQLite on any Mac OS version by downloading from:
http://www.sqlite.org/download.html

move it into /usr/local/bin/sqlite3. Then refer to its full path from within the Applescript "do shell script" command.

I wouldn't be entirely surprised if Apple apps like Safari would choke on
that; that something expects the exact Apple provided sqlite.

Still, it might be a good idea to plan for the need to revert to the
'original' sqlite, before upgrading.

That's why you shouldn't replace the "original" SQLite in the first place. Note that if you choose either of the two install methods I mentioned, the new SQLite command tool will be installed in /usr/local/ bin/sqlite3, leaving the original untouched in /usr/bin/sqlite3


Note also that this is just the SQLite command line tool. I don't think that the various software that uses SQLite actually uses the command line tool, but the linked libraries etc which are installed in other files.
