developerWorks





Thank you for your interest in the IBM® WebSphere® Everyplace Micro Environment, IBM's Java™ Platform, Micro Edition (Java ME) solution. The WebSphere Everyplace Micro Environment software includes virtual machines for a variety of popular processors and operating systems

IBM has shipped virtual machines that run on over 80,000,000 devices. WebSphere Everyplace Micro Environment can be ported to the majority of Chip Sets (ARM, XScale, MIPS, PowerPC, and more) and Real Time Operating Systems (Symbian, Linux, Windows, and more). For large scale commercial deployment, WebSphere Everyplace Micro Environment V6.2 runtimes can be custom built for your evaluation purposes. These runtimes conform to the specified Java Platform, Micro Edition (Java ME) configuration or profiles.

If you have a need for a large scale commercial deployment, please contact your IBM representative with details about your location and your planned deployment, including chip set, RTOS, tool chain, schedule and volumes. We'll put you in touch with one of our technical sales specialists, who will help you achieve your deployment goals.

For small volume business deployments and individual copies for personal use, you can purchase WebSphere Everyplace Micro Environment software from IBM Business Partner Handango for $25 USD. (IBM no longer provides free evaluation or trial copies on the IBM Web site.) All of the Java runtimes available from Handango are Java ME certified. Runtimes are delivered as is, and no support is provided. IBM has tested these runtimes on Windows Mobile 5 as a reference platform. Some companies have also used them on Windows Mobile 6 devices.

IBM runtimes are available on Handango, where you will find the following:

  • IBM WebSphere Everyplace Micro Environment with CLDC 1.1/MIDP 2.0
  • IBM WebSphere Everyplace Micro Environment with CDC/Foundation 1.1/MIDP 2.0

Note that this runtime can be downloaded only to a Windows Mobile 5 device. Also, the file you download is a Windows/x86 Install shield (EXE) that you must run on your PC. It presents you with the License Agreement and then copies the files to your PC. We do not provide a CAB file; therefore, you must manually copy the LIB and BIN directories to your device using ActiveSync.
