I have installed the J9 IBM Midlet Manager but would like to try the Tao Intent Midlet Manager on my Treo. However when I have tried installing the Intent Midlet Manager found in the ftp from ppcgeeks it will not install. And the Risidoro zip file from xda will not run on the Treo once installed, although it seems to process the file associations. Any ideas how to make this work on the Treo?
P.S. I am trying to run Operamini with this midlet manager and yes I know the IBM works.
With the recent release of Opera Mini 4 beta 2 (see the review, which has even been frontpaged by SmartphoneThoughts, HERE), which, in many respects, even better than Opera Mobile, the, so far, best Windows Mobile browser, Opera Mobile got a really serious contender.
Now, some really bright people have found out how individual MIDlets under the latest-and-greatest MIDlet Manager (the environment that runs MIDlets, including Opera Mini), Jbed by Esmertec, can be made run directly, via a direct link in, say, your Programs folder. This vastly reduces the time needed to start Opera Mini, and might also offer (I haven’t tested this as yet - it certainly works with IBM J9, another MIDlet manager) some other goodies - for example, making Opera Mini for the default, system-wide browser. That is, when you for example click a link in a HTML mail (or, click a file in the file system), Opera Mini will be automatically invoked and the link target (or, the file) rendered. Please see THIS page for more information.
Speaking of other MIDlet Managers, a lot has happened to TAO Intent MIDlet Manager as well. Well-known XDA-Developers hacker “Risidoro” has managed to 1, fix the “one shot” security problem of the, so far, only .1034 version of TAO Intent; 2, create a CAB file of an even more up-to-date (.1036) version of this MIDlet Manager. The latter works flawlessly and also has the ability to be installed to a storage card (which, so far, only the Russian hacked .1023 versions were capable of). Upgrading to it is highly recommended if you want to stay with TAO Intent (because, for example, of its M3G (3D) capabilities, which not even the latest Esmertec Jbed offers.) Please see THIS thread for more information.
Hopefully, Risidoro also manages to create a decent installer of another MIDlet manager, Jblend by Aplix, which comes with devices like the Sharp Zero, the Samsung BlackJack and sports pretty unique capabilities; for example, M3G (3D) support. See the THIS thread for more info.
Second, a request. Does anyone work for Esmertec, Aplix or IBM? Please tell the folks to read their mail - I won’t publish my long-promised MIDlet Bible before I am able to discuss all the related questions (most importantly the OEM-only issue of Jbed‘s / Jblend‘s, the two best and most standards-compliant MIDlet manaers today). If my mails (I’ve sent them last Sunday) are lost, I’m ready to re-send them. Feel free to mail me at werner_AT_remove_th1s_pocketpcmag_d0t_com.
My 503g comes with Esmertec and I like it. It has been very stable with everything I run especially the new Opera Mini Beta.
Now you are saying I can install the newest version of JBed on top of Esmertec and it will work better, or am I misunderstanding you?
Thanks.

Yup. see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=326951
Cool, thanks. This does work better.
The Esmertec folks have answered my mail - that is, I only need Aplix and IBM to do the same.
can anyone tell me which JVM is best for ppc?? specially for Opera Mini 4.
thanks
The best that I have used now is Jbed, although most ROM cooked with Intent Midlet Manager. Get it here:

I'm trying to develop a MIDlet for mobile phone that make use of Bluetooth as the communication medium between desktop and mobile phone.
However, i noticed that my MIDlet cannot work properly with different phones and JVM.
Currently, my application can work with Aplix JVM, JBlend but not Esmertec JBed.
So i wondering is it due to the support of the JSR82 in the JVM?
Anyone did face the same problem as me? and is there any recommendation to resolve this problem?
Thanks in advance.

Hi All!
I have tried a lot of midlet manager,
include JBed, JBlend, Jeodek, etc,
and I found that some java applications which consume a lot of memory,
makes the midlet manager fail to run (throws OutOfMemory error)
Only Jeodek, don't have this problem!
I found that it can run other java applications which other midlet manager can't!
However, after i buy another phone,
the new phone don't have the jeodek preinstalled >.<
I have tried many links on the internet, but all the version i found, are those issued before 2008, which do not support touch screens...
So I wonder, did anyone have a Jeodek which have network and touch screens support, or anyone can suggest a better midlet manager or jre, instead of JBed and Jbled? (I have read through the midlet bible...but can't find a good one...)...please help>.<
