EclipseME
EclipseME is to Eclipse what Mobility Pack is to NetBeans, a plugin that adds the development features needed for Java ME development. EclipseME only supports MIDP (as far as I can see), while there are Mobility Packs for both CLDC/MIDP and CDC. CDC is not of much importance right now, so the other major difference is that EclipseMe doesn't support anything similar to Visual Mobile Designer (UI design tool).
The main features of EclipseMe are:
The main features of EclipseMe are:
- Wireless toolkit preferences
- Create new J2ME Midlet Suite Project
- Create new Midlet
- Java Application Descriptor (JAD) editor
- Incremental/automatic preverification of class files
- Eclipse launch support for running within J2ME emulators
- Packaging and deployment including Over The Air deployment testing and obfuscated output via ProGuard
For my own development I don't see any reason to switch from NetBeans just yet, as all the above is covered by NetBeans Mobility Pack as well.

I haven't used it, but it says here that it's actually based on EclipseMe, and that the plan is to extend it beyond EclipseMe, whatever that means. From reading forum posts it seems EclipseMe is a more stable choice for now.
