    I have already studied previously Jave SE the likes of AWT / Swing and am looking to learn JME or J2ME and would welcome any advice.

    Is there a high learning curve given what i already know?

    What is Lightweight UI Toolkit (Similar to swing)?

    How does one for instance if one wants to develope for the Nokia or other mobile producer implement there API / SDK

    i downloaded a book called sam's j2me application development. It covers a lot of the basics and gets you going. I can email it to you if you want

    i've only made a few small things but the phone i was developing for didn't really make a difference. I used the nokia emulator integrated with eclipse for testing and they worked on a variety of makes and models

    i wrote out a guide a few months ago of exactly the steps needed to set up eclipse for j2me. I'll see if i can dig it out

    I'm most of the way through 'Beginning J2ME' by Jonathan Knudsen and Sing Li (Apress). I've found it to be very good. It was written in 2005 though, so things have moved on a little bit. If you've a decent amount of Java SE experience you shouldn't find Java ME very difficult.
