Sun's J2ME'¢ Platform brings unprecedented power and platform independence to the wireless market. Sun has collaborated with virtually every wireless leader, including Motorola, Nokia, NTT DoCoMo, Palm, RIM, and Siemens. Now, a team of J2ME creators and leading-edge developers have come together to present the definitive guide to real-world J2ME development. Whether you're building next-generation cell phones, two-way pagers, personal organizers, or any other wireless device, this book delivers the specific techniques you need to succeed. Programming Wireless Devices With the J2ME'¢ Platform starts with a much-needed general introduction and technical overview of J2ME technology and standards, and presents detailed case studies demonstrating J2ME at work in actual applications. The authors introduce key J2ME standards such as Connected, Limited Device Configuration (CLDC) and Mobile Information Device Profile (MIDP); and show how to maximize performance, portability, and consistency in real-world J2ME development. For wireless developers, consumer and embedded systems engineers, and all Java developers who want to leverage their expertise in next-generation wireless application development.
Wireless Device Programming with Java 2 Micro Edition assumes readers are motivated to build the next generation wireless application by leveraging the J2ME technology. The book provides commercial-quality code and examples primarily based on the industry-leading Motorola phone emulator.

Master the newest way of creating applications for wireless devices! Mobile Information Device Profile for Java(TM) 2 Micro Edition Professional Developer's Guide As the first Java 2 Micro Edition (J2ME) profile, the Mobile Information Device Profile (MIDP) brings the power of Java to handheld devices like cell phones, interactive pagers, and personal digital assistants (PDAs). With this practical, hands-on reference, you'll learn how to create MIDP applications, with real development scenarios covering user interfaces, database networking, XML, security, and more. This timely book follows on the heels of Giguère's Java 2 Micro Edition to offer you the definitive guide to understanding and using the Mobile Information Device Profile. This complete guide to MIDP programming covers such topics as: * The basics of J2ME * How to build and run MIDP applications * MIDP programming examples * The MIDP user interface model * Persisting data with MIDP * Using HTTP as a way to exchange data with servers on the Internet * The importance of security for wireless devices * Writing MIDP applications that use XML * Future directions of MIDP The companion Web site at www.wiley.com/compbooks/ortiz updates the material in the book and provides additional examples and resources as well as current links to the various specifications and toolkits mentioned throughout the book. Professional Developer's Guides The Professional Developer's Guide series provides the first in-depth look at recent or emerging programming technologies. Experienced programmers and developers will find comprehensive coverage of new programming standards as well as code, sample programs, developer's tools, and applications that will make programming for a new technology much easier.
