I believe most frameworks have some sort of demo program, and/or 30-day trial. You will have to evaluate yourself, based on the criteria you specify.
The framework I use is Visual Extend, and I will briefly comment on it.
>Things that I considered or should be realized:

In Visual Extend, I saw no mention of business objects.
>- we need support for different back-end databases, at the moment: VFP, MS SQL and Oracle (maybe MySQL in the future)
C/S seems to be no problem in Visual Extend, but I didn't test it myself.
>- the framework should support n-tier development
I don't know about n-tier in this framework.
>- it should not have a too high learning curve, cause other young programmers are participating in the project
I find Visual Extend easy to use, but an understanding of the source code helps in debugging problems.
