With modern feature phones becoming more powerful these days, it doesn’t surprise to see many of the original smartphone application makers developing J2ME version of their apps. We’ve seen this happening with Epocware, which brought its popular dictionaries to feature phones, and now Mobipocket is trying to do the same thing with its mobile ebook reader.
Mobipocket Reader for Java phones is still in the “alpha” stage, hence you may notice a number of bugs and (in)stability issues. The application was developed for Sony Ericsson feature phone, but should also work on other Java-enabled handsets.
It’s a good news that Mobipocket is trying to reach the mass market, even though at this stage I would suggest only the adventurous among you should try out Mobipocket Reader. At least until the app hits the “beta” status. Here’s the link which leads you to the page where you can find out more about the app and also download it.

The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
