Question

I have a mobile website special for the blackberry. I would like to create a blackberry application that just displays the mobile website. Like a portal. I need same features as a web browser but accessable as a blackberry desktop icon and downloadable in the blackberry store.

I never created a blackberry application before and i just want to know if this is easily possible.

This Functionality is call Blackberry web-icon. you can create web icon as following sample code.

import net.rim.blackberry.api.browser.Browser;
import net.rim.blackberry.api.browser.BrowserSession;
import net.rim.device.api.ui.UiApplication;

public class simpleshortcut extends UiApplication {
  public static void main(String[] args){
  simpleshortcut instance = new simpleshortcut();
  instance.enterEventDispatcher();
}

  public simpleshortcut() {
   BrowserSession site = Browser.getDefaultSession();
   site.displayPage("http://websitelink.com");
   System.exit(0);
  }
}
