Series 40

Series 40 is the world's most widely used mobile platform: With over 1.5 billion Series 40 phones shipped, it's estimated that 675 millions of these phones are in use every day. Series 40 phones range from entry-level products that provide many mobile consumers with their first experience of the internet to products that offer high performance, rich features, and engaging user experiences — such as the Series 40 touch phones.

You can harness Series 40's unmatched global reach and volume by creating Java ME apps or Series 40 web apps. Your Java ME apps can take advantage of the in-app purchasing and in-app advertising business models, to monetize your application after the download.
