I am not a java security expert, nor a J2ME expert, so don't look at 
this as the definite answer... but for this (on Java2SE) I would give a 
look at java "policytool"... maybe you can set the local KVM to accept 
you as a certified entity... or maybe you have to load yourself as a 
trusted certification authority...

Otherwise IIRC Thawte should have a "personal free email certification" 
program for getting certificates without paying $$$.

Monk, you would be my personal saviour if you published that code.
I really really hope this helps.
