Internet Polyglot games on the phones

Currently this is just an idea but I hope it will become a killer:

Create games for phones and mobile devices based on Internet Polyglot lessons. Today I spent some time at a book-shelf at Fry's (Californian electronics superstore) and skimmed a couple of books about J2ME (Java 2 Mobile Edition). I can see now that it is very possible to create such games. The architecture (here comes the techies' gobbledigook) is the following:

1. Internet Polyglot provides the SOAP Web Services. The framework for them already exists: http://www.internetpolyglot.com/services and the SOA-based architecture of Internet Polyglot allows to create web services fairy fast (just expose existing services as web services).
2. Mobile device connect through HTTP protocol to the Internet Polyglot web services and do the data exchange. One of the books that I saw today "Enterprise J2ME: Developing Mobile Java Applications" (ISBN 0-13-140530-6) describes fairly well how to do that. Another book "Beginning J2ME: From Novice to Professional" (ISBN 1-59059-479-7) proves the idea that development of such a program can be fairly simple (it looks like the word "fairly" is the word of the day :)).

Dear reader! If you happen to be a programmer and know J2ME and Web Services - please contact me and we'll talk about how you can share the future huge success of http://www.InternetPolyglot.com!
