The only news I found was about JavaME on Brew feature phones (http:// www.javaworld.com/community/?q=node/4067). Makes sense that Oracle holds on to JavaME - they get license fees for that. With Adobe giving away its runtimes for free (Flash Player, AIR), it won't be easy for Oracle to charge for their runtime on smartphones. It seems that Oracle also works to shrink down Java SE to run on smartphones, but that will need Java 7, so it's a bit off. Well, the Mobile World Congress still runs for two days, so we may still hear something about JavaFX Mobile. Like we did last year, when JavaFX Mobile famously launched - with a single UI component: a text field. Swing components couldn't be used in JavaFX back then (http:// www.theregister.co.uk/2009/02/17/javafx_mobile_review/page2.html). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "The Java Posse" group.
