Java runs* on my NAS, smartphone and tablet; all ARM devices. So I would 
disagree that ARM is almost useless for a Java developer. Although I've 
usually used pre-compiled cacao ipkg JRE on my NAS, you can download 
various compatible OpenJDK versions from Oracle:

*Admittedly I usually resort to Mono or C instead, since working with 
signed bytes in Java makes you angry and depressed - not necessarily in 
that order.
