My J2ME open source software list. Apparently I need to update it more often

This new camcorder phone from Amoi looks very good. It captures videos at a 352×288 resolution and shoots 1.3 Megapixel still images. It supports Java but I did not find any detailed specifications.

It looks like cloud to me. But the person who took this picture claimed it was a flying-dragon shape object.

We have a lot of different ways to get RSS feeds on Mobile Devices. Yahoo also has a Mobile RSS service. Now Sony Ericsson adds a pre-installed RSS reader for its latest phones like W600i.

Quotes from Sony Ericsson position paper - Mobile Web Initiative Workshop:

Mobile Web use cases #2: information updates

To further address the issue of how to get users online, and their reluctance to browse the Web in the traditional meaning, we look at another major trend.

Push services are on the rise on the Internet, based on the de facto standard RSS. We believe that RSS has a great potential in mobile phones, as a technology to automatically provide updated content to users - accessing the Web without browsing.

Does that mean we will have a push-based RSS reader on W660i?
