MIDlet development with J2ME and MIDP

John Muchow, Author
John Muchow is the author of "Core J2ME Technology and MIDP", currently the best selling J2ME book at Amazon.com. Published by Sun Microsystems Press, it is a recent addition to the popular Java Series. John writes extensively about J2ME and maintains the wireless developer Web site Core J2ME. The site contains an abundance of source code, articles, developer tools, and resources, and links to the latest releases of J2ME software. John is also founder of The Wireless Mind, Inc., a business that provides training for wireless developers, specializing in J2ME. In the first quarter of 2002, The Wireless Mind will introduce online (Web-based) J2ME training.

Summary:  Nokia, the dominant player in the mobile phone market, has estimated that in 2002 it will sell over 50 million J2ME-enabled mobile phones. With lofty numbers announced by other mobile phone manufacturers as well, there is a flood of interest in software development revolving around J2ME (Java 2 Micro Edition). J2ME is a slimmed-down version of Java targeted at devices that have limited memory, display, and processing power. This tutorial provides a step-by-step introduction to downloading, installing, and configuring your computer to begin development of applications for this runtime environment.
