Hi, I'm searching for information on how to create a j2me implementation. My target is a generic linux host... does it exist already? I mean a way to run j2me applications on linux without an emulator? Do you know where to find info?

Have a look at the phoneME project. It's not officially supported but it does run under Linux.

A: 

This looks like it might be made to do what you want:

It's open source, so you can take it, tweak it, and make it run where you want.

A: 

why do you want to do this?

the only reason I ask is j2me applications are designed for mobile devices. This means that you wont be able to run j2me applications on a standard computer without an emulator of somekind?!?

when making j2me apps in linux, the netbeans emulator has had everything I've ever needed

The new Nokia N900 uses Maemo5 as its operating system which is based on Debian and thus is a fully-fledged Linux phone. Similarly Google's Android is also based on Linux. Neither of these support midlets which is a huge step backwards from previous phones.
