Summary: Programming!?
Comment: For a book with programming in the title there is precious little programming in this book...
The editorial review from Book News, Inc has it right: this is a general MIDP information book. If you are after a book about how to program some MIDP specific features you will not find it here. Contrary to the other reader's review there is actually little low level technical information.
No treatment on general programming tips either, for example, why threads are more important in MIDP wireless programming than traditional Java programming. Or how to change your style to be less Object Orientated for speed and memory efficiency (Nokia forum has good tips on these areas).
In short, good review but bad for programming.

Summary: J2ME in a Nutshell
Comment: Programming Wireless Devices with the Java 2 Platform, Micro Edition is an excellent one-stop shop for everything related to the current status of J2ME.
If you've read the CLDC and MIDP specifications and want to know more, this is the book for you. This book is suitable for project managers, team leaders and developers. It has a good mix of high-level architectural discussions and low level technical detail to keep all readers interested.
Due to the immaturity of the CLDC and MIDP specifications, don't expect this book to be the final word on the subject. I would expect to see more developer-oriented books to appear once J2ME has gained a wider audience.
Overall this is a very readable book that comes highly recommended.
