Editor's Note | News | Features | Discussion Forum | Java RSS Feed

Theory, practice, and tools that work in todayıs most demanding Java application, embedded and system environments.


Editor's Note

Mobile, mobile, mobile! Tom Thompson, of KPI Consulting, discusses J2MEıs PIM API in depth, showing how Java programmers can (finally!) access personal information (local filesystem, removeable media, address book, to-do, etc.) on Java-enabled mobile phones. Using the two component APIs ratified in JSR 75, developers are now free to engineer productivity-enhancing apps that access, manipulate, and act on personal record data, as well as distributed applications that synchronize on-phone resources with corporate and public records accessed cross-net. A great followup to Tomıs recent J2ME article on displaying GIF images.
