I'm afraid there is no way to tell Series 40 from 60.

Why do you need to know?

Cheers,

A possible workaround for this could be to setup a remote page (e.g.: a PHP script) that sends back the platform to the client. Remote platform identification could be done by using client User-Agent (S60 devices usually send Symbian and Series60 in their user agents).

Of course, this approach would require your client to perform at least a network request, so could not be suitable in all scenarios.

Could you create a ServerSocket, and connect to yourself...? Am I right in thinking that all MIDP2 '60s have ServerSocket support?

You could use com.nokia.mid.timeformat that supported in Series 40 devices only and if nothing is there you can assume that they are using S60 devices. That solution works only if you know exactly that user has either S40 or S60 cellphone.
