News from JavaOne: Now Verizon does Java ME tech; Who's next, Apple?

In case you missed it at the JavaOne 2009 conference last week, Verizon finally gave in and agreed to allow Java ME apps and games on their wireless network. They finally see the light and agree that there is high value for Java ME on cell phones. Now, we just have to wait until Apple finally has their epiphany on why they should put Java ME on their iPhone and iPod Touch.

Verizon sees the light

Here's a quote: 

 However, due to the carrier's 
 newly opened stance toward 
 networks and applications, 
 he said Verizon Wireless will 
 embrace Java technology--and 
 will provide Java developers 
 clear access to Verizon 
 Wireless' network and 
 customers.
Hallelujah! They see the light! The truth shines bright! :-)
