I am Mobile App developer from India . Here mostly people use Java enabled devices and J2ME Apps tops at any marketplace. Sites like Getjar.com , ovi store are the target stores for many mobile developers here . So we primarily focus on these devices rather than any smart platform . Could I survive outside India with J2ME skills ?
Survive? Sure, as long as you're good at what you do. There are still lots of people with "feature phones", and lots of companies still need to make apps for them - you'll certainly find facebook and google maps for J2ME, though maybe not the lean startups that HN puts most of its attention on.<p>J2ME is certainly on the way out - dying even - but so's COBOL; there's still plenty of work around, and will be for many years yet.
