Yes, that is exactly my point. Google is pragmatic.  JavaME may not be  
hot or exciting, but it has the numbers, so Google ships apps for it,  
and the probably will for a long time.  I don't disagree that  
platforms other than JavaME are growing and more exciting, especially  
as smartphones grow to be a major portion of the market, but I want to  
dispel the myth that Android (or iPhone, or Palm, etc) have more  
marketshare than JavaME. They don't. Smartphones collectively still  
have less than 5% of the market. If you want volume today, it's JavaME.
