Hi!
Happy new year everybody :)
I'm catching up my podcast listening after a little holiday break.

I was surprised that there was no mention of Android in the poll about 
the biggest Java story in 2008.
* It was a new OS for mobile phones
* backed up  by Google and other major players in the industry
* apps are developed in Java!
* using an Eclipse-based SDK
* a great (iPhone users may disagree;) device was out and more will be 
out soon.

I don't know, to me this was HUGE and I think this will touch way more 
users (and probably more developers) than JavaFX, or closures will  -  
this is only my opinion and I could be wrong of course!
Plus if I'm not mistaken, Dick was involved with Android at his previous 
job so that could generate interesting discussions :)

VoilĂ  :) As always, great show.

BoD
