No there are not any good books on this.ãMost people have just not
explored the power of Winforms (there are VERY few winform books) and
are very unaware of how powerful they are as "rich clients" and the
Java people are not likely to admit they are as powerful or more
powerful.

In terms of Java webstart vs. Winforms Java Webstarts run in a very
tight sandbox and has limits as to what it can do. Winforms once they
gain permission from user can run in sandbox or more powerful modes.

In terms of talking to server from a Java app it happens transparently
within the limits of the sandbox. Winform apps can talk to server
transparently to update and can use isolated storage sandbox,ãby
TCP/IP Sockets, great toolkits like Groove.net, FTP, Webservices,
simulated webrequests and dozens of other strategies.
