Well, I'm not an expert in this, but I don't know if this really would make
any improvement. With hardware acceleration you "just" throw your bytecode
at the CPU and it processes it just as if it were native code. So, I don't
see how JIT could be useful here. Also, it is unlikely to make our work
easier, or would it? I'd go as simple as possible to start with.
  
      
  You mignt mean Jazelle like technology actually. 
    

Yes, this is exactly what I mean by "hardware accelerated Java on AVR32" 
and what Atmel calls "Java Extension Module (JEM)." The main difference 
is, that JEM documentation is publically accessible, and Jazelle isn't.
  
  That sounds very very great . Would you provide me a link to this 
documentation or otherwise I may ask Mr. google :)
  
I'll let you know when the board arrives.
  
      
  Thank you :) . Maybe I should find some emulator first :)
    

I haven't found any. Let me know if you have more luck.
  
 Let me try my luck.
Thanks
