So Dev

Mobile phone development. Saga continue ....

One of my ex-colleague highly recommended me to pick Sony Ericsson T610, which should be selling at HK$1500, for Java app development. Problem is that:

- It only has 2Mb of memory
- Sony Ericsson is notorious in self rebooting.
- The Java spec it support is kind of old

So I will continue shopping around. But then I found the Sony Ericsson development providing enough information to give me a general idea about what it is like to develop an application for mobile phone. The link is www.SonyEricsson.com/developer. Check it out. It's worth the time.


In addition, I found the following links useful for mobile development:


The Wireless Podcast #1 (the first) - The Wireless Development Weblog - wirelessdev.weblogsinc.com
Wireless Java Dev blog


Beside Sun Studio One, I found out that JBuilder 2005 Enterprise edition also support Mobile app development support, and it's cool that there's a trial version available that I can try it out. Hmmm ... I wonder which is better, Sun Studio or JBuilder 2K5 ....


http://midlet.org seems contain a lot of Java app for mobile. I wonder how many of them are open source. Plus, many of the app look old and are still in monochrome ... My wrong impression maybe?
