Books	Reviews (by Anders Borg)	Java ME Books
Beginning J2ME	A must-have for new and seasoned to Java ME and MIDP. Excellent book that I read from cover to cover. It describes Java ME used in mobile/cell phones (read: MIDP/CLDC) and it explains most of the related newer JSRs as well, including JTWI, Bluetooth, PIM, File Connection etc, and it's fairly new (April 2005). As such it's frankly the only fairly up-to-date book around, which is odd considering the success of Java ME for phones. If you are into Java ME game development you can probably find more focused books, but if you are into more serious applications, including corporate ditto, this is the book to get. It assumes some knowledge of Java, but is easy to follow without that (at least if you know C(++), PHP or similar before). The code examples can be downloaded from the Apress site.
Thinking in Java	A comprehensive guide to the Java language. I read the digital version of the 2nd edition from 2000. Both the 2nd and 3rd editions are available for free via Bruce Eckel's site including all code examples (don't ask me why I didn't read the 3rd edition; absent-minded I guess). Comprehensive means it also gets a bit academic at times, but it covers most aspects of the Java language. Note that it doesn't describe any development tools nor provides any specific treatment of J2SE, J2EE or Java ME.
