Hints for writing MIDlets[edit]
According to Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not, articles should not include instructions or advice. RosinDebow 02:57, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

I have removed the excessive source code and re-written most of the article. — M3TA(info) @ 06:50, 3 March 2010 (UTC)
Could use a section recounting the decline of support and development[edit]
As far as I'm aware, pretty much no modern mobile devices have supported MIDP out of the box for the last few years, though some people have made some apps to run them on newer devices. Already by 2010, developers were shifting away to writing native Android and iOS apps (and for a time, Windows Mobile/Phone and WebOS apps). MIDlets were popular on old flip phones with the two "soft" buttons below the screen and a dialpad, but were overtaken by native apps when phones made the transition to taking advantage of the new multi-touch, capacitive sensor screens. (Though apparently it was possible to write MIDlets to accept single-touch or even multi-touch.) A section describing this decline would help round out the article. —Undomelin (talk) 21:12, 4 February 2019 (UTC)
