Hi / Shalom, This is going to become an off-list discussion or one for "plain talking Java" , but with jdjlist-traffic low I dare to put the beginning here:
I'm currently concentrating on Java for PDAs - therefor Java versions 1.0 and 1.1 (J2ME) . I just got a test version of the new "EVM" Jeode from Insignia - great product , installs easily even on older "iPaqs" and the Mediaplayer demo ( @ http://uuhome.de/penski/past.htm ) works with as less as 4MB of RAM free). When "java.nio.*" is included in future versions of generally available mobile Java VMs I'll give it a try (I also have to think about Java VMs on widely-spread cellular phones / smartphones). I think the PC segment is dominated by MS-Netmeeting (contained in OS packages and featured in PC-related TV shows) with many integrated interactive features besides mere image and sound transfer , so no need for a Java solution in standard cases. After having subscribed to my highspeed (coaxial) internet connection (when monthly fees become reasonable - perhaps in a year) I'll give Netmeeting a try, too. For (WinCE) PDAs there already is a streaming solution called "PocketTV" which might become bidirectional in the near future. sincerely, U.
