Question:
I'm interested in developing for MIDP 2.0 on Symbian OS. Does Symbian provide any tools supporting MIDP 2.0 development?

Answer:
The UIQ 2.1 SDK is available for download and supports MIDP 2.0.

http://www.symbian.com/developer/uiq21_sdk.asp

Developers can install and run MIDlets written for MIDP 2.0 using the emulator that comes as part of the SDK. When installing the UIQ SDK ensure that the"UIQ 2.1 MIDP SDK" package installation option is enabled. The "UIQ 2.1 Java SDK" is not required unless Personal Java development is to be undertaken as well.
