  And out of curiosity I decided to search for J2ME on my laptop and Google had very little resources except official Oracle docs and a Java blog tutorial ... from 2005. Good times. https://today.java.net/pub/a/today/2005/02/09/j2me1.html https://today.java.net/pub/a/today/2005/02/09/j2me1.html

    what kills me is the initial release had support for the IR blaster that most palm pilots had, the next "SDK" i found had it removed, and i later read it was because of something along the lines of "most devices don't support this so we removed it". the possibility of having a programmable IR remote control on the cheap 12 years ago was amazing to me. I think its kinda cool that newer android devices are starting to have IR blasters again..

    Android killed J2ME, this is where all Java developers moved to. Oracle still tries to push J2ME, but the opportunity is gone.

  Come on, it is not that hard. Actually did some cool stuff very easily. I mean, it is no xcode easy, but it is eclipse easy.
