Well, after having browsed through the source code, I am afraid the answer is 
'undefined'. HttpConnection class invokes socketFactory#createSocket method, which in 
its turn calls Socket#Socket constructor, which in its turn can timeout at any time it 
sees fit. Does anybody see that differently? I do not think there's much we can do 
about it

Yes, that's the point. However, I do not set any value for setTimeout in
HTTPClient. And it is thrown after one minute in average... What's the
default value if nothing is set up ?

George,

Please note that HttpConnection.ConnectionTimeoutException represents a
connection timeout (set with HttpClient#setConnectionTimeout), not a read
timeout (set with HttpClient#setTimeout). Can it be that this confusion is
the source of the problem?

        That's strange, because even when I do not set anything, the
connection times out for about 1 minute, throwing a
HttpConnection.ConnectionTimeoutException. Setting explicitly to 0 will
never timeout ? 

Thank you for the answer.

"forever" means "until the server is bored and closes the connection" :-)
