Description:

This is the first Java MIDlet that I've created. It's a mobile offline version of the CIA World Factbook. All the text are in the public domain from the CIA World Factbook web site. This program is freeware and you can download and share it. I tested it on a Nokia N73 but it should work on any recent Java based phone.

Version with maps: (7megs)

MobileFactbook_with_maps.jad

MobileFactbook_with_maps.jar

Version without maps: (1.4megs)

MobileFactbook_without_maps.jad

MobileFactbook_without_maps.jar

Known issues:

Performance is bad when starting the application for the first time. It can take up to 30secs to load up.
