Hey, little buddy, it's Java ME tech-enabled eBuddy

Here's yet another instance of a company finding a working business model around Java ME technology. It just keeps getting better. The company eBuddy moved their application from the regular desktop Internet world to mobile devices. With an advertising model on the desktop Web and a revenue-sharing model for their mobile app, it seems they have hit a sweet spot.

See:

Here's a quote: 

 Mobile: The J2ME application has been 
 downloaded more than 3 million times 
 since its launch in June 2007.  The J2ME 
 application is especially popular in 
 Asia...  The J2ME client may be 
 downloaded at http://get.ebuddy.com 
 and... may also be downloaded via 
 popular mobile application sites on the 
 internet, like GetJar.com.
Java ME technology just keeps making sense (cents)... or dollars in this case! ;-)
