J2ME
I've been reading here about how Pocket PC has no official Java VM, and Sun have no immediate intention of finishing the VM they've been working on. Obviously, this means that anyone writing J2ME applications can write software that works on all mobile platforms except Pocket PC, which is pretty bad news for those of us who are into our XDAs.
However, somewhere I read that the XDA II was going to have a Java VM, which presumably is being paid for by either the hardware manufacturer, or the phone networks sponsoring the device.
Given that I'm not sure of the "legality" of putting a Pocket PC 2003 ROM onto an XDA anyway, I'm wondering if this board is likely to find the XDA II ROM, and perhaps provide us XDA owners with a way of running Java applications.
I've had a look at SuperWaba as a solution, but I'm was hoping to pick the technology I learn next partly as a career move as well as a way of writing fun stuff for my XDA. Not sure SuperWaba is going to help me as much as J2ME might.
