J2ME is a very special thing. Especially if you are not used in using 
Java and Eclipse, it also can be very confusing.
As someone stated before: the best is you install everything AGAIN, in 
this order:

Sun JDK
Sun WTK
Eclipse
EclipseME
Then configure/scan your devices
Than start a new "J2ME Midlet Suite", add a "J2ME Midlet".
Doubleclick the JAD-File in your Project and there add your Midlet 
(Second tab called "Midlets"), save this.
Then create a new Emulator-Task (Menu Run->Open Run Dialog) and choose 
"Wireless Toolkit Emulator". There you should choose Midlet in the 
Execution-area and specify your midlet there.
Thats it - then the midlet should run. Look at the docu for "Form" - 
this is the easiest way to get something displayed.

I startet programming J2ME about 18 months ago, and it was very hard to 
get all the thinks working out of the box. So, maybe you should NOT 
expect a fast delivery of your app to your phone :-)

Much Luck :-)
