From the point of view of the end user or even the Java programmer there is no differences - both jdk's offer the same public APIs, compilers, runtime environments, etc. The differences are in the internal implementaions. Sun JDK is developed by Sun Microsystem. They officially offer binary downloads for Windows, Solaris and Linux, as well the source code (for their JDK). A FreeBSD port for Sun JDK does exists, but it is not made by Sun. Take a look at that page: http://www.freebsd.org/java/ Diablo JDK (I think) is another implementation of JDK - see http://freebsdfoundation.org/downloads/java.shtml.

It seesm to work, but I have not have it tested in the production environment by the developers. I suggest that you use the native jdk instead (which you can bootstrap build with the linux-sun-jdk). The linux-sun-jdk has various issues running correctly on FreeBSD; check the java-mailing archives. The native jdk removes the requirement of yet another layer of software to run (ie the linuxalator), and simplifies debugging.
