Hi,
EJB and JSP are not an either/or choice. If you follow Sun's
blueprint for J2EE, EJBs are designed to provide the back-end,
behind the scenes work and JSP/Servlets provide the front-end.
In other words, where you call beans in a JSP application now,
those beans would be EJB beans as opposed to 'traditional' beans.
