java applet for sony ericsson k750i

[BlackMustard]

hi all,

my dad recently asked me if i could make a simple basketball scoring program for his sony ericsson k750i. i said i'll try, but i've never programmed anything in java before (except for quite a lot of javascript on websites, but i suppose that doesn't count...) and have no clue where to start.

the only things i want the program to do is to
1. display a little timer (mm:ss) counting down from a set value, with the possibility for the user to start and stop the clock.
2. display scores for two teams - home and away - with the possibility for the user to increase and decrease the scores with one point at a time (two-pointer, two clicks etc)

i'm pretty familiar with programming in vb, so i could easily do a program that would do this on a pc. however, i have no clue how to do it for a phone running cymbian...

where do i start? what do i need to download? are there any nice free developing programs that would make the deploying to the phone easier?

i'm not asking you to write the program for me - i'll gladly do that myself! but i don't know how to begin learning...

Netbeans mobility pack and J2ME are your search keys on google

First of all, you'll need a Java Development Kit (JDK), which can be downloaded from here. That is needed for compiling any Java Program.

An IDE is often a good idea - Eclipse is free and very popular.

Next, you should download the Sony Ericsson Development Kit. That apparently only takes jad-files (not jar-files as you will create a lot of the time), so the JADMaker could come in useful.

Otherwise, search for J2ME tutorials, maybe ones especially for Sony Ericssons.
