When I learn J2ME for programming in handphone. I have found there is usefull tool for watching stock price in handphone… It download stock market data to your handphone … It’s very simple but I think it’s very good for you to watch your stockportfolio when you go and far from computer Stock Software for Handphone . With this progam you can consider to buy stock or sell stock even when you are on traveling . The stock program uses GPRS as data connection and using yahoo as it’s stock source. So it has delay about 15 minutes. But it’s no problem because you can watch the movement of the stock and can make any decision. The program can view multiple market in one view. You just have to know the stock code in Yahoo format. Here the example : ^JKSE , TLKM.JK , GOOG , MCSFT , ^NYSE etc …

With this tool you don’t have to read newspaper in the morning to see the last stock price

But the program still have weakness … it has cut price from 10000 to 1000 (it can’t show number more than 10000) .. but I think most stock is less than 10000 …

You can download the program here :
