Take care Simon, and write me a mail if you want. A Cambridge pal awaits you....

Also, the Netbeans 5.5 mobility pack has support for dealing with SVG in Java ME applications. For example, see: http://www.netbeans.org/kb/55/svg-tutorial.html Alessandro,

At the current moment there is no real competition between J2ME and Flash Lite, but I understand what you are saying. I am a Flash Lite developer and I see the huge opportunity that Flash Lite can create for mobile devices. I see the challenge to shift from coding to UI and user experience. Flash Lite gives the ability to concentrate on the usability and look and feel of mobile content. I create apps that ran without code chance on Windows Mobile 5, Brew and Symbian. It seams incredible but there were no issues at all, just a matter of copy/install the Flash Lite applications to the various handsets. I think Flash Lite will gain interest quite fast. Alessandro Ciao,
