What's MIDP 3.0 all about?
MIDP 3.0 is the new, yet unfinished, version of MIDP. CLDC/MIDP is the most popular mobile phone application platform, and is at least a magnitude more deployed than Symbian OS, that's in second place. Hence, getting everything right in 3.0 is essential for future mobile application development. Standing still is not an option, as the phone capabilities and developer and user requirements are increasing fast.

Complementing Enrique's Important Java ME Milestones: MIDP3 Early Draft Review, MSA Final Release I've written a more detailed analysis of the enhancements and changes in MIDP 3.0 based on the early draft specification. It can be seen as a summary of the specification, provided you already know what's in the previous versions of MIDP.

The analysis is still being revised in details, but I should already have covered all bigger changes. Feel free to point out omissions and misunderstandings. I can take it :).

Comments:
Wow, that's impressive.. It's about more than 700 pages of documentation and JavaDocs.

Great contribution.
