Haven’t tried this, so may not work, but try and see.
According to this link, J2ME handsets with QWERTY keyboards “almost always return their corresponding ASCII/UTF8 value [as
keyCodeparameter when the framework callsCanvas.keyPressed()]”. So try calling something likeCanvas.getKeyName(65)(i.e. the letter ‘A’).If it throws
IllegalArgumentExceptionyou will know that 65 is not a validkeyCodefor that device, therefore it’s not a QWERTY handset.Let me know if it works!
