"I have had the good fortune to be involved with mobile Java from the very beginning, and I know what it takes to be successful in this marketplace.

The First Official End-To-End Solutions Guide for Every Nokia Series 40 Developer

Nokia's Series 40 Developer Platform gives Java developers access to the world's highest-volume, fastest-growing, and most exciting mobile markets. Nokia sells close to 100 million units within their Developer Platform families every year, and the Series 40 Developer Platform is the highest-volume platform in the family. Success on this platform is crucial for the commercial success of any mobile application. Knowledge of the Series 40 Developer Platform can be applied to the Java environment on all Nokia Developer Platform devices, including Series 60 devices.

Fully reviewed by Nokia's subject matter experts, this book covers the entire development process—from design and coding through testing and deployment. The authors walk you through eleven complete example applications, presenting downloadable client and server source code that you can use to jump-start virtually any project. Along the way, the authors illuminate the technical underpinnings of Series 40, review crucial architectural issues, introduce key mobile design patterns, discuss scalability and device optimization strategies, and offer dozens of best practices and tips—many of which have never before been published.

  • Identifying your best opportunities and killer applications for mobile development

  • Building effective MIDP 2.0 user interfaces for devices built on the Series 40 Developer Platform

  • Building animated mobile games

  • Handling persistent and networking data

  • Proven techniques for scaling and optimizing applications across devices

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent guide to Series 40 development, 24 Feb 2005
By Dr. Samuel R. A. Taylor (Hampshire, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This book provides a simple, easy-to-read introduction to developing Java J2ME midlets with the MIDP2 APIs. If you don't like reading dry old JavaDoc then this is a much friendlier alternative. Even if you do like wading through JavaDoc, this book is an excellent companion.

But whether you're taking your first steps in the J2ME space, or you're already an experienced developer, this book offers something much more important: it provides a really detailed description of Nokia's mainstream/high-volume Series 40 platform.

One of the hardest things about J2ME development is knowning how the behaviour of each different platform varies. Despite the promise of "write once, run anywhere" in reality developers need to have a great deal of platform-specific knowledge.

Nokia Series 40 is far and away the largest volume J2ME platform in the market. If you want to develop for Nokia handsets you really should add this book to your collection!
