has been dedicated to the games, the large 65k
colour screen and more sophisticated graphics
with Java 3D and the Mascot API. The result is

Supporting J2ME (Java 2 Micro Edition), the phone
lets users download and run new games and

personalize the phone.

on the mobile device. Using a media editor, users
can incorporate text, audio, images, video clips
and animations to assemble full multimedia
presentations. The user can decide in which order
the image and text will be displayed, as well as for
how long the images and text lines are to be shown
on the display.
