J2ME Midlet for Yahoo Web Services

I have been tinkering with J2ME and am very impressed with the progress of the tools and related technologies.

The YahooWebServices Midlet Suite enables use of mobile devices to access Yahoo Web Services - Local Service only supported as I needed it to avoid expensive 411 calls.

The Midlet is at
