On a related note, the J2ME from Sun is now open source https://phoneme.dev.java.net/
"The project scope includes a focus on the mainstream feature phone segment with phoneME Feature software, and the emerging advanced phone segment with phoneME Advanced software." Regarding Android and Sun licensing, interestingly Ed Zander who used to run Sun Microsytstems (COO/President) now runs Motorola (CEO), and has said moto wants to be part of Android. If there was any kind of licensing problem he would probably know. Another interesting thing is that Java runs on many many phones already. Probably most are not set up to allow development, but from what I've seen doing tech support it seems most phones run Java. Another interesting thing is how prevalent ARM is used on phones. I believe ARM actually owns this market for processors. If you have any recent phone, most likely it's ARM inside. -- Doug _______________________________________________ OpenMoko community mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
