No LWUIT?

Thanks for pointing out the omission. I have added it. It certainly deserves it place there.

LWUIT wasn't particularly awesome, in my opinion. It was enormous and hideous and couldn't integrate with the native cut-and-paste functionality offered by some phones.

		Well... 64kb isn't exactly enormous for the type of functionality it offered. It did support copy and paste you just had to enter editing mode. The underlying APIs didn't offer access to copy and paste directly. Having said that, it doesn't really matter if you didn't like it. It was a pretty big part of the J2ME ecosystem at the time and it's a huge omission.
