Re: Java VM For Pilot

[Anonymous]

 
I am just trying to state two things:

1. Java is feasible on the Pilot. The KVM has a smaller footprint than anyone would predict. The API doesn't promise portability of PC apps to the Pilot (that just isn't possible), but promises portability of Palm apps to the PC which is great news.
2. Obfuscation puts Java code on the same level with compiled code. You know you can disassemble compiled code, don't you? And if you know the compiler, you can go from assembly code to C or whatever, as you do with java classes.

I agree it is not yet the time to move to Java. But I assure you I'm moving to Java as soon as Java 2 ME is out for the Pilot. It satisfies my minimum feature-list: It's small, fast enough for non CPU-intensive tasks and covers all PalmOS features.
