Editorial Reviews

From Library Journal
Wireless applications are driving the future of information exchange (just listen to those cell phones ringing). Sun Microsystems created Java 2 Micro Edition (J2ME ) to work in an environment where there is limited processing power and user interface capabilities. This book covers J2ME's basics and walks the reader through a series of development projects. Informative as well as instructional, it is highly recommended for libraries with a technical readership.

5.0 out of 5 stars Early to market but a great practical tutorial, August 20, 2001

By	"andypgrace" (Armadale, Victoria Australia) - See all my reviews

As one of many people now moving their programming to the wireless world of Java 2 Micro Edition, I found this book to be excellent.

It contains numerous, real world examples - from getting simple text off a server, right through to reasonably complex game design and even sprite manipulation.

In fact I'm sure many of the applications in this book will be converted into real world code by cut and paste coders!

The book does require some limited knowledge of Java2 but I was at home very quickly.

With plenty of exercises, and a CD of all the source and latest Sun Forte/SDK I was delighted with my purchase.

Perfect if you're targeting Motorola cellphones or Palm development (note though doesn't cover the new Nokia J2ME SDK)

5.0 out of 5 stars Very good book!, September 21, 2004

By	David Eikeland (Newport, RI, USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I knew a little bit of Java, and I found this book very good. J2ME is explained pretty good, and the examples are easy to follow. I have developed several applications that I use after reading this book.
If there is anything that is missing in this book, it would probably be an Appendix with a better description of the different APIs.
It is a very good book for anyone that wants to learn J2ME, but might be a little boring if you already have J2ME experience. However, if you buy a "Teach Yourself .... in 21 days" book, you are probably not an experienced programmer in the language anyway.

4.0 out of 5 stars Sweet little intro, June 8, 2003

By	Riccardo Audano (Chiavari, Italy) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Very good tutorial text ... with a nice hands-on approach
and a working example on every chapter. Strongly recommended as your first book on J2ME. Simple graphical interfaces, persistent storage, connecting to the internet, personal information management..and even a few chapters on game development, which is great since , honestly speaking, is there any of us who wants to use Java on cell phones to make boring contact managment programs?

Bad news first: This book has a few typographical errors in the
explanatory texts but none in the source code listings. Read more
