HTTP and SSL only.

I don't think there's a direct way but we did some chat-like app using a webserver
where both phones registered and were then polling for new messages...

No, from my experience with the existing 503i phones (Sony, Panasonic, Fujitsu and
NEC) I can say the following:
Max download app size (JAR size): 10KB
Max app execution size (when running): far beyond 10KB (in fact we didn't have any
trouble)
Max scratchpad size (for persistant data storage): 5KB
We loaded gfx bigger than 5KB (where our app was already almost 10KB) and had no
problems.
As a sidenote: iApplis are *not* Applets - they are J2ME applications.
