Well... j2me is going to be around for a while yet. No actual telephones are being sold that run Google's software, and even when they come out, people wishing to 'run everywhere' will be stuck having to create both Android and j2me apps.
Yeah you're right. It will be interesting to see what kind of JavaME/Andriod integration arises in the future. Maybe all of the Android APIs could be wrapped and rolled up in a JavaME optional library or something.
A more realistic statement would be RIP Palm/Access. I dont know how they can expect to build their own Linux platform to compete with Andriod... I hope they embrace the open handset alliance rather than try to define their own standard.

Hehehe...Funny how Google announcing something is taken as a sign that a company that has been building this kind of software for years is effectively dead. I'm not saying Palm isn't moribund, but consumers have a funny way of not doing what the biggest players in the field expect them to do...Google may find that getting adoption is harder than they think. I think Palm probably has nearly as good a chance as Google of being the winner, and I suspect the odds are rather poor for both.
RIP JavaME.
