JVM on a PDA

[docetes]

hi

i'm trying to write a program in java.
I want my Ubuntu laptop to play a game of chess with my PDA.
I'm a bit stuck. Does anyone know where i can get a Java virtual machine for my PDA.
It's a dell axim 51 and it runs windows Mobile 5.

Any help would be greatly appreciated,
Dave

I don't want to discourage you but my xp with midlet managers has not been pleasant thus far but having said that, I stopped about 6 months ago.

You'll want to look into WM5 midlet managers to make sure they support network connections first. Once that has been confirmed, you can head over to the Sun site and look into midlet examples. I suppose there's a fair few examples for Java apps on the desktop so I'll leave it at that.

With respect to running a full JVM so that the same code runs on both wm5 and the PC, it's hard to find a fully functional WM5 JVM.

I hope you find this useful.
