I think one of the major advantage of smart applications over WAP is that they are faster.
If you want to do a complex transaction using WAP, you are likely to go back and forth across many little pages and spend a lot time downloading and submitting them. Smart applications allow you to store intermediate results on device and minimize network usage.
Sure J2ME smart applications are slower than native smart applications. But they are still faster than WAP, especially for complex transactions ...

Can you show me tutorial/book that can guide me to perform this? Thanks you.

1) Build a basic app. This will get the J2ME buzzword on your resume. (I hate this, but I think it's currently a big help in the J2ME market)
2) Now for the real skills. Learn how Java really works! I've seen two many "Java Programmers" and SCJPs who think they know Java just because they can recall some APIs from memory. That's next to worthless. A good programmer understands what's going on under the cover. He or she understands what tradeoffs the JVM makes, and how to maximize performance in Java applications. This is especially important on small devices, constrained by memory, speed, and bandwidth. These are the skills I look for when hiring J2ME programmers.

Check out wireless.java.sun.com. There's an article there now at /midp/articles/garbage by Nagendra Nagarajayya and J. Steven Mayer entitled "Improving Java[tm] Application Performance and Scalability by Reducing Garbage Collection Times and Sizing Memory ". It really gets down and dirty.
Also, check out http://wireless.java.sun.com/midp/ttips/. There's a wealth of information there from Eric Giguere. Everything he writes merits downloading and saving.

I'd start by going to the JavaRanch performance forum and asking questions there. There are some good books, including one by Peter Haggar
I definitely second the motion on Peter's book. If you ever get a chance to attend any presentations he gives, you should do so.
