J2ME in a Nutshell
To the experienced Java developer, J2ME (the Java 2 Micro
Edition) looks just familiar enough to be tempting, but just
different enough to warrant caution. J2ME in a
Nutshellprovides the extra security you need when venturing
into programming for cell phones, PDAs and other consumer
electronic devices. It gives you the reference
material you
need for J2ME, together with a tutorial that leverages your
existing knowledge and teaches you what is different about
J2ME without boring you to tears with details you already
know.
J2ME in a Nutshell provides a solid, no-nonsense reference
to the "alphabet soup" of micro edition programming,
covering the CLDC, CDC, KVM and MIDP APIs. The book also
includes tutorials for the CLDC, KVM, MIDP and MIDlets,
MIDlet user interfaces, networking and storage, and advice
on programming small handhelds. Combined with O'Reilly's
classic quick reference to all the core micro-edition APIs,
this is the one book that will take you from curiosity to
code with no frustrating frills in between
