this is perhaps the biggest myth i've seen, having worked in two  
software houses that developed for mobile phones.

it's more like "do it once using j2me for each phone model out  
there" (before you ask, yes, the same phone series from the same  
manufacturer has differences between phone models and j2me stacks  
that require yet another port).

i've given up on ruby for my day-to-day work (11 years of perl are  
hard to let go) but i'm certainly looking forward to try this.

cheers,
