Baby, you can drive my Java ME tech-enabled car

I saw an e-mail today from Ed Washington who said he saw this mentioned on TV: UC Berkeley has teamed up with Nokia and NAVTEQ to create a nifty Java ME app for your cell phone called the Mobile Millennium Project, that does free traffic monitoring by aggregating cell phone GPS locations and traffic sensors embedded in the road.

See:

Get traffic patterns w/Java ME (not Android :-P) phones

Here's a quote:

Tested [Java ME tech-eanbled] Devices
BlackBerry Curve 8310 (AT&T)
BlackBerry Pearl 8110 (AT&T)
Nokia E71 (Unlocked)
Nokia N95 (Unlocked)
Nokia N96 (Unlocked)
Nokia E61i (Unlocked, with external GPS) 
Cool. Well anyone who is using Java ME tech for cool projects like this can drive my car (as long as they stay under the speed limit... and obey all traffic rules... and stay off the Interstate... and...)
