Re: Is there a Motorola's MidWay replacement for Linux or in plain Java?

Hello!

I own a Motorola E398 phone. I use Sun's Java ME toolkit to develop some
apps for it. Poor me, the software to actually upload midlets to the phone
(MidWay) is a Windows application - an OS which I don't use nor like.

As the MidWay application uses plain serial port to upload (well, actally an
USB link, but for MidWay it is virtualized as COM), there shouldn't be a
problem to convert it to Linux (or even better - Java). Did anyone see
implementation like that?

I'd like to have the whole application life-cycle running on a free software
platforms (as Linux for platform, NetBeans plus J2ME for development, etc)
- last thing I miss is the ability to actually stick the midlet into the
phone.

Best regards,

I trust that is a developer enable device, if not MIDway won't help.
