Mac developers have often asked when Java ME SDK 3.0 will be available for their operating system. We always answered that we were working on it. Today is the day when it happened, we have released Java ME SDK 3.0 Early Access for Mac OS X. You can download it from http://java.sun.com/javame/downloads/sdk30.jsp.

Why force mac users to use NetBeans... Can you please introduce support for Xcode Sun?

Seemed to have an issue on my first download. Clicked on Mac download, got the login form, but once I completed it the Windows install started to download. (I'm running snowleopard, and safari as the browser).
However once logged in, going back to the download page and selecting the Mac version allowed it to download.
Now to see how well she works. :)
Fingers crossed. <check>
Rabbit's foot. <check>
Run... and FAIL!

Looks like we still have no joy on Mac. :(

@Hamish Rickerby, the Java ME SDK doesn't force you to use NetBeans. It is based on NetBeans Platform(http://platform.netbeans.org/) however as it is UEI compliant emulator you can use it with whatever tool you like...

it works with NetBeans 6.8 Beta - http://blogs.sun.com/lukas/entry/mac_netbeans_6_8_beta
