We were thinking about sending out this piece of news on April 1 [April Fool's Day in the US], but we figured no one would believe us. Anyway, yes, the OGL-based pipeline will be available on Windows in 1.5-beta2. Keep in mind that it should be considered a "technology preview" for developers interested in trying their applications on the new pipeline. There are still quite a few driver issues out there (and a few issues that need to be fixed in our code) before it can be considered stable enough as a deployment option for developers. The release notes will have more information.

Looks like we'll get "preliminar" opengl acceleration on win in jdk1.5.0b2. Chet, please tell me that's true!
