Hi all, I have experience in J2ME and Symbian developing too. I'm also a Java programmer since 1995. At the moment I think Android is the best mobile platform for me because it's relatively easy to develop and permits a great integration with the device. I just have a doubt. Is maybe Android a "developer oriented" platform or can be also a "user oriented platform". I think that, at the moment, iPhone has something more but I hope that Android devices will arrive at the same level or more from the user experience point of view.
