Brainstorm: Brainstorms, category Games http://maemo.org%2Fcommunity%2Fbrainstorm%2Flist%2Fxml%2F%3Fstatus%3Dideas%26category%3DGames/ Sat, 04 Apr 2026 04:48:23 +0000 FeedCreator 1.7.6(BH) en Delivering Java ME to Fremantle http://maemo.org/community/brainstorm/view/delivering_java_me_to_fremantle/ The purpose of this proposal is to assess the demand and determine the best way to deliver a Java ME - runtime for Fremantle / Maemo 5.

A MIDP - compatible Java ME runtime is present on most of today's smartphones, nearly all of the latest Nokia devices are delivered with Java ME available.

It is an established technology with a big developer base, there are many Applications and Games available, but currently there is no easy way for endusers to be able to run their MIDlets on the new Maemo 5 Platform.

 

Ideally, this brainstorm proposal results in a Java ME Package available in the Fremantle-Repositories for easy distribution through the Maemo 5 App Manager.

The thread that sparked this proposal:
Java for Maemo 5

 

This is not supposed to be yet another "Nokia should do it" proposal - if you want an implementation, please vote not only for the "Nokia-option", but place a 2nd vote on your favourite community solution so we will know where to invest our time first, should Nokia really decide not to buy an official License.

Older tablets could become wired microphones with the use of the headphone jack.

(sorry that I'm giving a solution in the idea, I don't know how else to phrase it)

What would be a proper solution?
