emotional.. nothing much has changed from the days you had to send<br>
Nokia a fax to be able to download a ROM image for the Palm emulator<br>
before you even start working with J2ME, and Mr. Gates is making it<br>
even more difficult for developers to be able to work on a true open<br>
platform, he should stick to philanthropy instead of acquisitions<br>
&lt;/rant&gt;<br>

Anyone with a Nokia N900 going for a better price than what&#39;s on<br>
Amazon, please contact me offlist.<br>

&gt; Ok, had not gotten you in the framework issue. Have no idea about the ease<br>
