Hi;

    Many Java and BREW applications (but not all) with a little ingenuity can
be done entirely in
xhtml or on really old handsets hdml (in the case of KDDI), without the need
for a JAVA or BREW app at all.  You can put a lot of the logic server side and

have all sorts of small dynamic pages... but in some cases, connection costs
will run high.

    But if you really want an app like thing, you may wish to try out I think
its
called SMIL, a kind of Flash preprogrammed app.  Those are available on many
AU handsets.

    Supposedly, your handset supports BREW 3.1!!! (much more functional
than BREW 2), supports SMIL, and correspondingly Flash Lite and Flash anime.
It supports
WAP 2.0 (aka KDDI specific XHTML),  I don't see any Java support listed... but
maybe it will
work if you try.

    I'd need to try out all these things on the handset to be sure how well
they work.

    If you want to try something wacky.... Qualcomm has been going on for ages
about
JAVA support from BREW.... you can write a Java appli and try and run it from
BREW, since its a 3.1 handset!
