I would personally recommend you learn the basics of network programming
before taking on J2ME. Not that I think it would be espcially useful (I
don't do J2ME myself) but becuase the concepts are so useful they'll be
a big help no matter what you do.

Basics:
1. Java language first. At least a couple of months.
2. Java API next. There's a lot to learn here.
3. Spend some time practicing what you learned. Write a couple of medium
sized apps. For networking, implement a couple of basic network
programs, like telnet (no cheating, do the whole thing) and IRC (again,
the whole protocol, client and server).


Is there a site where you can get free source code and learn from it?
I assume you learn to program by first looking at other apps and
perhaps implement their code but change few things?

Now you are ready to learn more. I think J2EE is more popular than
J2ME, but J2ME tends to be more of a niche, and I would think less
competition for jobs too.

What do you mean by more?
