Well, wait until you start digging into the java api's and doing cool stuff with it. Example, I asked around for ways to find out how to interface with the image library APIs in java and got some good answers on cf-talk. With java api's like imageJ out there, they're pretty damn easy to interface with. Image J helped me crank out 60+ thumbnails for a directory full of jpgs in a matter of seconds (on Windows, having a path issue on linux). At any rate, don't be shy with it, experiment... who knows you could find some cool stuff under the hood. I think it's far from a buzzword, it does have some use...
