| Using UEI Emulators |
| Making use of emulation environments is crucial when writing code for a mobile |
| market but making use of the hundreds of different emulation environments out |
| there can be easier said than done. Now that the NetBeans Mobility Pack 4.0 is |
| available as a free download, it's easier than ever to incorporate different |
| emulators and switch back and forth between them while developing one seamless |
| set of code. |
