See also??
Does anyone else think mobile games should be added to the see also section, since a good majority of mobile games use j2me ?
Training Section
I think J2ME training institutes should also be added.
Rename Article
This article should be renamed to Java Standard Edition, in accordance with the change in the naming convention announced at this year's JavaONE convention. [1] aidan_walsh
- Wrong. This article should be renamed Java Micro Edition, not Java Standard Edition as described in the above paragraph.
- Yes the paragraph at the top is wrong. It should not be renamed to Java Standard Edition.
- Dear all,
- as far as i can see, the Java 2 Micro Edition (J2ME) is now simply Java Micro Edition, or JME. that reflects Sun perception that now all Java is what was once called Java 2.
- so, we should have a line stating that Java 2 Micro Edition (J2ME) is now officially called Java Micro Edition, or JME.

Spam?
I've removed one link as it was an J2ME application, not a resource on J2ME. However I also question the following: [2] [3] [4]
Does anyone else feel that they should be removed as spam? mlk ✉♬ 12:25, 30 December 2005 (UTC)

Pocket PC
Sun not supporting the Pocket PC is a pretty big deal. The thread complaining about it: http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=408223 has been alive and well for 3 years. Mathiastck 17:59, 24 August 2006 (UTC)
SavaJe
Someone added SaveJe to the See Also list.

Open Source
Some mention should be made of Sun open sourcing parts of java, including this part :)

Windows
Is there any way to run J2ME programs on windows PCs, with an emulator or otherwise? 69.85.180.142 10:02, 1 December 2006 (UTC)
- Sun has an emulator, in it's WTK, as do most manufactuers, and some carriers. Mathiastck 19:40, 20 March 2007 (UTC)
External link to Java ME device database might be added
My earlier editing was deleted, but I think an external link to http://www.jbenchmark.com/result.jsp is reasonable to be added to this article because JBenchmark database is the most complete database of Java ME devices currenlty on the web. Most developers use it for compatibility and performance checks.Kishonti 21:06, 14 March 2007 (UTC)
Intel = x86?
[...] targeting a non-Intel-based small device will require a vendor-supplied JVM to be available on the device.
Intel-based = x86 architecture? --Abdull 09:20, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
kJava
Searching on kJava redirects to this page -- but there is no indication what kJava might be, or how kJava might related to J2ME or CLDC. Heck, the string "kJava" doesn't even appear on the page at all.
I guess this is an invitation to anyone that knows what kJava is to do something. Maybe put the word on the page. Maybe change the redirect. But if you wait around long enought, I will find out on my own about kJava and then update Wikipedia myself. Trust me, it is better if someone who knows what they are talking about goes for it.

differences to SE
A list of limitations compared to SE could be relevant -Sigmundur 14:38, 15 November 2007 (UTC)
Phasing out J2ME
Can someone add info from here? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 221.128.180.134 (talk) 18:48, 14 March 2008 (UTC)
- Seems like an abstract plan for an undefined future. Unlike iPhone, J2ME runs on a large variety of phones, some of which are quite limited in capabilities. Also SE as it currently is may not be ideal for dealing with the limited output and input capabilities of phones. ¤ ehudshapira 15:11, 25 June 2008 (UTC)
Future use of J2ME source code
J2ME can be further stripped down and be developed to be used for platform independent bare bone GUI and an super light weight alternative to HTML with enough features to give HTML AJAX a run for its life. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 61.11.19.253 (talk) 11:58, 11 January 2009 (UTC)
Is Java ME a failure?
I have plenty of high end mobile phones, smartphones etc. I have yet to see a usable Java ME application. To me Java ME appears
- slow
- buggy
- difficult/impossible to develop for because of inconsistencies between mobile phone implementations.
The promise of "write once, run everywhere" is not very true for any java distribution but is particularly laughable on Java ME.
I therefore suggest a "Criticisms" heading or similar where I and others substantiate this. Would you agree? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.173.176.199 (talk) 14:28, 6 April 2009 (UTC)
External link to J2ME Book Full Text
It has been nearly a decade since I started Java ME(J2ME) programming. It was a very exciting experience being the first author on this subject in India and being one of the first trainers on this subject in the whole of South Asia. After training top corporates like Reliance Communications, LG, Kyocera, Mahindra Satyam etc for big bucks now I have shared my book for free for the benefit of all Java ME (J2ME) programmers. I hope it will benefit all the readers. This book contains my experience of designing mobile games and applications.
