about Sun
A singular vision -- "The Network Is The Computer" -- guides Sun in the development of technologies that power the world's most important markets.
The Java™ Platform, Micro Edition (Java ME) is the most ubiquitous application platform for mobile devices across the globe. It provides a robust, flexible environment for applications running on a broad range of embedded devices, including mobile phones and PDAs.
Sun Developer Network
The Sun Developer Network (SDN) provides rich online and offline resources that can address and solve technical issues.
SDN's core competency lies in the ability to supply timely and accurate access to technical information on Java technologies and Sun Java System products, programs and services that not only support the entire development lifecycle but are designed to increase productivity.

Java Verified Program
The Java Verified Program outlines to content and application developers the steps involved in preparing their Java application, and getting their application tested and signed.
An application that successfully meets both the program guidelines and passes the testing process is permitted to use the Java Powered™ logo. This will differentiate applications from other unverified J2ME applications.

Sun and Orange Partner: working together
Orange Partner and Sun are working closely to enable Java developers to build mobile applications for the Orange networks around the world.
Java de-fragmentation guidelines
As part of the Java de-fragmentation initiative, Orange Partner has worked closely with Sun to produce a set of guidelines for Java ME Platform programming that aim to reduce the practice of generating a distinct executable version (jar file) of an application for each and every phone.
The guidelines take a look at some of the causes of fragmentation, and offer suggestions as to how an application may be written to achieve the optimal balance of application performance and coverage of a large number of phones.
