Storage Options

[pckozub]

I'm trying to explore storage options outside of using the protected methods that require you to get your code signed and pay a hundred bucks to RIM. Does anybody have any input on this, or am I just too cheap? :-)

Thank you,
Patrick

You can write to SD media (javax.microedition.io.file, not signed). Otherwise I think the only other option is to use PersistentObjects.

Agreed... PersistentObjects..

Thanks, folks. I really appreciate it :-)

I paid just $20 to get the signature keys from RIM. It shouldn't cost you $100.

I seem to recall that both the J2ME RecordStore and FileConnection APIs are privileged operations: if your app is not signed, the phone will bug you with permissions every time you access them. This is why Opera Mini always asks permissions. I really think you should just put up the $20 for signing privilege.
