On various mobile phone developer sites like Nokia, Sony Ericsson, Motorola etc...
I found Java ME development SDK's for mobile phones but only installable on Windows OS... I have a Ubuntu OS (Jaunty Jackelope) at home and was wondering if Mobile SDK's Linux installable versions are available?..
I have the NetBeans IDE installed on Ubuntu...

You can always give windows a try on a VM if you are keen and the sdk is restrictive.

WTK can be installed in Linux. This is a general SDK and it lacks manufacturer's specific libraries. However it will be OK for most of your applications.

If you have access to a windows VM or wine you should be able to install the handset maker dev kit, extract their API jars (and documentation maybe?) then discard the rest of the kit.
Done this with many APIs.
