Abstract
Wireless Java technology is the intersection of two vast worlds, wireless data communications and the Java platform. Java in mobile phones is widely accepted today vis-à-vis the early days of the mobile revolution. With 250 million Java technology-enabled wireless devices from 31 manufacturers deployed over 75 carrier networks, Java technology seems to be smartly perched in the applications space.

The Java framework consists primarily of the Java 2ME (Micro Edition) platform with its API and various tools for application management. This white paper explains the J2ME architecture, various APIs provided, methodology for downloading the applications ‘over the air’ and various challenges ike security, memory requirements etc. faced by the wireless Java world. This paper discusses a Java based application scenario also to make things easier to understand.
