I also have a 7" screen and an attached keyboard. I use the Hacker's keyboard so I have arrow keys to move the cursor around.
I added the "s" to the font name and it worked. Great! But I couldn't figure out how to save the file. There is no menu bar. And I tried to press ctrl-s using the attached keyboard, not the one on the screen and it just added another "s" to the name. Something I did finally saved it but I have no idea what it was. When J starts it displays a few lines and I can type in something to run. But when I press enter nothing happens for a long time. It finally did run. I detached the keyboard and it seemed to work better. Need to play with it more but the battery was low. Will experiment more later. When I ran some forms like "change font" and demos the controls were small like they were designed to fit on a phone. Lots of empty real estate on the screen. It was hard to pick parts of controls like scroll bars. When I tried to pan around like other Android apps it selected blocks of text. The only way I could pan around was using the arrow keys. But the graphic demos were really impressive. Have had very little time to play with it yet as soon as the battery is charged.
