Hi all,

I would like to buy this great T610 - but there is one thing, I am urgently missing:
a possibility to store complete adressdata - not just numbers and email, but street, zip, city and so on. I cannot understand, why the T610 doesn't seem to support that by nature, but I hope, that there is some software out there (J2ME ?) that is able to fill this gap - otherwise, I have to get the Siemens S55 instead

Does anyone know about such an application?

Best regards
Joey

Haven't heard of anything yet that will do what you want. In any case you would want synch capability otherwise what happens if you lose your phone or a firmware upgrade causes loss of data?

Some people have some success with trying to put addresses into other fields like company name but that assumes you only have personal contacts and also this thread describes a problem in synching the full 30 characters available in the company name.

Enjoy your S55!

Actually J2ME on T610 doesn't have access to the phonebook on the phone, so I don't think such an application would be possible. At least not in the current JAVA implementation.
If I had all the answers, I wouldn't have any questions.

Although I am a developer, I know nothing about J2ME developing.

Is there an J2ME API list somewhere that you know so that I can see what is possible and what is not?

I send the address in this manner :

i create the contacts in Outlook with the address in Company field (30 Chars) then save the contacts as .vcf file in a directory and send them via IR.

After this in T610 you can read all the information correctly.
However there are 2 problem:

1) for every .vcf sended i must accept it in T610.
2) i cannot sync contacts with Outlook by XTND but you can save them with the send via IR from T610 to PC.

Bye Bye

@masseur

This (Mobile Applications with J2ME) might be of interest to you.
You might alost want to look at SE JAVA Developers Guidelines

Finally, if you want to take a look at SE JAVA SDK, you can get it here.
If I had all the answers, I wouldn't have any questions.

Excellent. Thanks! The first link is a bit of an old document but the second one is very interesting. Not sure that I will go as far as trying my hand at development for the T610 but I am tempted. Thanks again!
