How do I install java on a pocket pc device?

[ivwshane]

Ok I'm playing around with a siemens sx56 (a pocket pc and a phone device) I need to access some java enabled websites but the pocket pc OS doesn't come with java support. How and where do I get what I need to enable java support on this device?

I want to know too.

BUt i don't think PPC support java.

I got flash though.

Yeah I've done some searching on the web and apparently the pocket internet explorer version that comes with the pocket pc is based off of version 3!

And it looks like you have to buy 3rd party apps if you want ssl support as well as java.

What garbage! I can't even access hotmail with this device:|


I love it when companies put out a device and then don't support it:|



I would love for anyone to prove me wrong.
What's the point of having such a device?

Really, you can't check hotmail?

Maybe this link will help...

As for the web browser, Here's one (its not free/open source though)

Edit: I have nothing to do with any of these sites. A search on Google led me to these places.....

Won't be the first time I've had to do that. I practically owe google my life .

Nope doesn't work it's not for the xscale cpu's. I've also seen the netfront before and since it's not free I can't be bothered to try it.

Isn't XScale ARM?

Blackdown has a Java2 SE port for Linux ARM, but I have no idea about toy platforms like WinCE. It's more resource intensive than J2ME of course.

Actually, from that link civad provided, I would try out SavaJe. I recall reading it works well.
