the IBM websphere micro environment with support for MIDP 2.0 has now been officially released on the palmone website. it runs on Palms with OS 5 and and ARM processor, specifically the Treo 600, and the Tungsten and Zire lines.
i'm not crazy that the VM isn't bundled with the Palm OS...that seems like it would have been a better deal for both palm and ibm. hopefully, it will be bundled in the future.
If you already have a J2ME app, conversion to the palm plaform is pretty easy, although there are still a few "known issues" that developers need to work around.
we did it with our FeedBurner Mobile Feed Reader - so if you have a Treo 600 or a Tungsten C, try it out!
