Google Orkut: Multi-platform support including Java ME

Being multi-platform is a must for Mobile apps these days. And, it's interesting to note which platforms big companies like Google choose for the mobile versions of their apps like for Orkut Mobile. Hmmmm... iPhone: check, Nokia Series 60: check, Java ME: check-er-oonee... Uh, Android? Android? Hello? No, Android? I guess Java ME technology is more important than Android to Google. As should be!

See:

No Android for Google Orkut Mobile

Here's a quote:

 The adoption of the cutting-edge 
 Google Web Toolkit platform and 
 the evolution of the interface 
 come after a series of innovations
 and improvements on Orkut through 
 the year which include features 
 such as built-in simultaneous 
 chat,  photo tagging with 
 automatic face detection, private 
 sharing of photo albums, safety 
 features, and Orkut for iPhone, 
 S60 and J2ME-based mobile phones. 
 Google sees this as the beginning 
 of a new direction for Orkut...
It's good to see a company like Google acknowledge that Java ME rules and Android... well, Android doesn't rule.
