C. Enrique Ortiz updates his Java ME overview, A Survey of Java ME Today. If you'd like an introduction to the world of mobile Java technology, this is an excellent place to start. Ortiz explains configurations, profiles, APIs, and these Java Technologies for handsets, smart cards, and embedded devices.

You can read about various Java technology newsletters and tech tips at the Sun Developer Network (SDN) Program News site <http://blogs.sun.com/SDNProgramNews/> or at <http://developers.sun.com/newsletters/>. A couple of useful ones are Java Fundamentals <http://blogs.sun.com/JavaFundamentals/> and Core Java <http://blogs.sun.com/CoreJavaTechTips/>. The New to Java Programming Center may also be helpful: <http://java.sun.com/new2java/>.

Plse correct me if I'm wrong. I'm interested in Java ME. I've been told that you do not need to learn the whole of Java programing as there are some APIs? and others that you will never use in Java ME.
To make life easier what do I need for mobiles & smart cards?

You are correct in that various configurations and profiles use subsets of Java technology to run on limited devices. To learn about Java ME technology, read the platform overview at <http://java.sun.com/javame/technology/index.jsp> or start with the New to Java Programming Center <http://java.sun.com/new2java/>. For information about Java Card, see the Java Card specification <http://java.sun.com/javacard/3.0/specs.jsp>, Development Kit page <http://java.sun.com/javacard/devkit/>, or the home page <http://java.sun.com/javacard/>. If you use Java ME with the NetBeans IDE, check out the Mobile Applications Learning Trail <http://www.netbeans.org/kb/trails/mobility.html>.

Thank you Christine.
If I understand well; I must still go thru the WHOLE Java Tutorial before I can go on to Java ME.
I'm NEW to Java and I want to "specialise" in Java ME.

Perhaps you can begin with the Getting Started material <http://developers.sun.com/mobility/getstart/>. And check the index page for other topics that may work for you <http://developers.sun.com/mobility/reference/index.jsp>.

You may be interested in looking at the online courses for Mobile Developers (<http://www.sun.com/training/catalog/java/mobile.xml>).

You can also look at the Fast Track course for Java developers (<http://www.sun.com/training/catalog/options/ft_main.html#PK-DTJ-275-FT>).

There are some whitepapers that are useful for understanding general concepts <http://java.sun.com/blueprints/guidelines/designing_wireless_enterprise_applications/index.html>
