150,000 entries is not a big number for databases - you should be able
to hook perl DBI connections to both databases and pull updates at some
reasonable interval. I'd search on freashmeat.net for a 'shopping cart'
application to display the catalog and try to find one where the db
entries are easy to match up with what you already have.
