I am always here. I am in charge of this forum.
I had a question to b asked...I am a SCJP 1.4 and I am surrounded by only that much portion of java. And I dont have any knowledge of j2ee. And now i am planning to get into j2me. I really dont know where to start from and where to go from here. What are the technologies that I need to learn before getting into j2me. And can you plz tell me what does your book cover... Coz i m a bit confused on 'what to do next'.
Starting from a J2SE background, J2ME should be pretty easy to learn. It is just another set of APIs. Jonathan's book is excellent in API coverage and examples. But if you want to develop sophisticated end-to-end applications, there are a lot of design issues you need to consider on mobile devices and wireless networks -- tha is where my book comes in. It talks about architecture, design and specialized toolkits for mobile development.
For starters, check out Sun's J2ME Faq:
