Every time I look for mobile phone development I see Android, WinMobile, iPhone, RIM, etc…

Are small phone applications dead? I remember having a small collection of games and apps that run on motorola, sony ericsson and any other java-compatible phone. My Question is:

How do I start developing those applications? Is there some kind of market for them? And, last but not least, Are these applications dead with the arrival of complex UIs and devices like iPad, iPhones, Android, etc…?

thanks and hope someone can throw some light on this.

    I bought a cheap phone for my mom today that used Brew as its O/S. Those small Java apps would be ideal for such a phone, and it was humbling realizing that still the majority of the world don’t really use “smartphones”. However, the problem is there’s so many different phones, different brands, and no centralized market place, making such an attempt difficult at best. If you want to program Java apps for mobile phones, Android still uses Java.
