MIDP 2.0, CLDC 1.1. The right technologies? which ones to use?

I believe that MIDP 2.0 and CLDC 1.1 is the frameworks/platforms to use when you want to target most mobile phones on the market.

If you think otherwise - please give me your thoughts.

But what tools do I need to download to start developing?
Emulator?
libraries to support the developement?

In short terms - how do I best get started?

kind regards, Ivan Gammelgaard

Hi,

You can use eclipse or netbeans

Eclipse 3.4
EclipseME plugin
WTK from sun (this is the emulator, etc).
Proguard (obfuscator, it will protect and optimize your source code).
After installing all this you should setup eclipse so it can find the WTK and proguard.

With netbeans you won't need anything else. Just download the right version.
