A method for off loading resource intensive compilations is disclosed. The method may include enabling a user of a wireless handheld device to request a platform independent application. The wireless handheld device may be enabled to assess a resource on the wireless handheld device and to determine whether to request native code for the platform independent application. The method may also include enabling the requested platform independent application to be routed to a trusted server. The trusted server may compile the platform independent application into native code for the wireless handheld device and may transport the native code to the wireless handheld device for execution.
