I tried going to http://www.keitai-dev.net but it seems to be dead, so
I'll ask here, if that's alright...

I'm looking to buy a new handset and start keitai development for the
first time, but I have some questions about uploading MIDlets directly
to the handset.

I understand my connectivity options are USB cable, IR, and Bluetooth,
but neither of my PC's have IR or Bluetooth. Will it be cheaper to buy
a generic USB Bluetooth adaptor, or a handset specific USB cable?

What software would I use for the upload? Would Mac OS X be a problem?

What type of handsets don't support uploading MIDlets at all? Which
providers require the applications to be signed? Are there any other
traps to avoid?

Can anyone recommend a handset / provider combination that would make
this easier?

Sorry for all the questions, and thanks for any help.
