Java is a technology developed by Sun Microsystems.
Similar to the way you would download the Java
Applet using the standard Netscape or MS Internet
Explorer browsers, Java MIDIet can be downloaded
using the WAP enabled phone. Depending on the
service provider, all Java based programs such as Java
games can be downloaded and run on a phone.
Once downloaded, the Java program can be viewed
within the Games & Apps menu where you can
select, execute or delete. The Java program files saved
in the phone are in .JAD and .JAR formats.

The JAR file is a compressed format of the Java
program and the JAD file is a description file that
includes all detailed information. From the network,
prior to download, you can view all detailed file
descriptions from the JAD file.
]
While being based on a standard language (J2ME),
not all Java applications are compatible with all
handsets on sale insofar as specific libraries may be
used for a telephone model. The software may be
blocked or switch itself on when Java applications
not specifically developed for the phone this
manual refers to are downloaded, making it
necessary to "restart" the handset. We would like
to point out that these problems are caused by
incompatible applications and are not a product
fault.
Warning
]
Only J2ME (Java 2 Micro Edition) based programs
will run in a phone environment.
]
The J2SE (Java 2 Standard Edition) based programs
will only run in a PC environment.
