On a phone? I don't think you can even run a J2SE JRE on a phone... not even with a "Hello World!" type of application (ie without OFBiz in the picture at all). A J2SE JRE is a LOT bigger than a J2ME JRE...
You could certainly do a SOAP or other client, and I know that has been done before for very small applications, even running on a phone.

I'm brainstorming a couple of options for integration of ofbiz with mobile terminals (smartphones). What could be stripped off of Ofbiz and still provide the framework' basic database functionality with hsql or derby as well as the services and minilang. Also looking at what could be done to pair down the java requirement to JRE instead of the JDK. The most frequent use of this would be through a thin client. However, I'm needing to anticipate loss of connectivity so it needs to store information locally and then sync. Would a paired down OFBiz work for this or would it be better to look at another option for use on the smartphone and then have it sync through SOAP when connectivity is available?
