I have had some time to experiment with J2ME which is something I’ve always wanted the time to do. So during the course of this week (maybe a few hours total) I have put together my first Midlet. It’s a simple piece of software which allows you to send an SMS via the Clickatell SMS gateway.

You’ll need a Clickatell HTTP API Account to do so, if you don’t already have one click here to get one.

I have posted the source code here or you can point your mobile device directly at:

Alternatively, download the jar file directly (I had to do this to get it working on my Windows Mobile 6.1 phone) at http://www.ddj.co.za/s.jar

I wrote it using a Mac with Eclipse (with ME add-on’s) using mpowerplayer as the emulator. It is *just* a prototype and by no means uses best practice programming so don’t judge me on this quick hack ;)
Enjoy! If you like this app and you want me to modify it for you please get in touch via midlet@ddj.co.za
