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.
