Notes:

The note graphic was stolen from my brother's audiovisual association called ToneTroopers. All the other graphics are hand woven, washed and digitalized.

The application was written especially for the Nokia 5130 Xpress music phone (a B-day present for my brother :D), but it should run without any problems on any phone supporting MIDP2.0.
