Yeah, the right atitude for guy whose life relies on Java. Let me
confront you with an earlier post of yours:

So, where do you stand? Did you play with your KVM and you know what you
are talking about, or did you reset your palm minutes after you bought
it? I know if I had the chance to be at JavaOne and play around with the
KVM, the last thing I'd do would be to reset the Palm.
Again, I see you have missed the point of KVM. Didn't you ever asked
yourself what is the main difference between PalmOS and WinCE? Why is it
that most people prefer PalmOS to WinCE? The real best feature?
Simplicity! That's what this is all about. Simplicity
Palm devices are suposed to be simple. No fancy GUIs, no complicated
stuff. You don't need a Layout Manager on a screen where every pixel is
important. I see a big future for PalmOS. What I don't see in PalmOS'
future is the ability to run desktop apps. I hope it never happens.
That's the WinCE paradigm.
