little offtopic: realease year of j2me ?

[Serethos]

i need to know the original release year of the j2me standard, as we know it for handy-development. but i really can not find any date on the sun pages ..

Probably what you want is the release date of MIDP 1.0, which you can find from its JCP page: JSR-37.
