With the recent release of a version of SymbianOS that breaks past symbian applications and it getting harder and more complex to build symbian applications which application platform Symbian application developers migrate to..JavaME? Flashlite?

While certainly Adobe claims ease of development with flashlite might be slightly hyped with the breaking of oop patterns of code you have to do in using push and pop commands to rewrite loop code just so the application will not crash.

Top be fair we also had some weird oop code pattern breaking in JavaME MIDP 1.0 but it has got dramatically better with MIDP 2.0 and the only market where as they have not fully switch to MIDP 2.0 handsets is Latin America.

It might be closer to convergence and overlapping rather than divergence for Symbian application developers in that MIDP 2.1 can span both content with svg support and complex applications both as stand alone and server connected. With Apollo 1.0 not supporting flashlite we flashlite in the content realm and the connected server realm but not as a stand alone application.

Symmbian application developers might find a home with both platforms. Adobe certainly understands their marketing puzzle in that they have to compare flashlite to javaME to entice Symbian application developers as certainly only referring to disadvantages of MIDP 1.0 in their comparisons would not play with most JavaME developers who are developing using MIDP 2.0 at this point.
