Hi,The ea version of the palm midp says it is for Palm OS 3.5. Has anyone tried this with OS 4.0? (such as the Sony Clie 610?) Thanks!Robrobcox@pobox.com

The current MDIP APIs is not officially tested on the the release of Palm OS i.e. v4.0.

Other 3rd party companies have released their very own CLDC compliant kVM for the Palm OS e.g. Jbed Micro Edition CLDC[tm] from Esmertec:

The requirements for the kVM by Esmertec states Palm OS 3.3 or above, so their VM might work on the PalmOS 4.0

I've tried to use MIDP on Palm OS 4.0 (m505), and I encountered several problems, such as IOException / EOFException on the output stream. These errors never occured on Palm OS 3.5, if someone can confirm my words, please knidly let me know.Thanks.

MIDP for PalmOS 1.0 BETA only supports PalmOS 3.5 so the IOException and EOFException are probably due the fact that the current MIDP for PalmOS 1.0 BETA is not tested on PalmOS 4.0.
