title: Blackberry and RESTful services
body: <p>I'm looking to develop a blackberry application to consume a RESTful service. At the moment we plan to develop a REST layer which we will use to perform searches on a back end database and return the results as JSON.</p>
  
  <p>I have used the Jersey framework ( <a href="http://jersey.java.net/" rel="nofollow">http://jersey.java.net/</a> ) for consuming (and developing) REST layers in the past.</p>
  
  <p>This is the first time we plan to develop such an app for a blackberry. From looking around I'm not sure if jersey is supported on the blackberry for consuming RESTful services.</p>
  
  <p>So I'm wondering could someone offer some advice (on jersey or any other purpose built JARs) for using RESTful services on Blackberry?  Otherwise we will have to build from scratch the code for consuming the RESTFul service. Or even use SOAP which I prefer not to have to do if possible.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks,
  John</p>
