Later on we'll perspire, walking in a Java ME Widget Wonderland

It's a Widget Wonderland with Zumobi's Widgety user interface. In 2nd quarter of 2008, users can use the Java ME version of Zumobi tiles to access, click on, and share content. No more having to remember a long URL to type into a small screen with a limited keypad on your Java ME cell phone.

See:

Zumobi Widgets for Java ME in Q2 2008

Here's a quote:

 Aiming to simplify the often tedious 
 task of accessing mobile Web content, 
 Zumobi eschews the traditional mobile 
 Web browser. Instead, phones equipped 
 with the software display up to 16 
 Zumobi tiles that enlarge when 
 clicked.

 When the device user clicks on a tile, 
 the content is loaded quickly because 
 it is constantly being updated. The 
 tiles can be easily changed by users 
 and shared with others. The interface 
 is designed to automatically adjust to 
 different devices, including those 
 using touch screens.
I'm not sure why they would launch a Windows Mobile version before launching a Java ME version, but hey, it's their nickel. It would've made better sense the other way around.
