Hey, I just wanted to say I solved my problem by using the method described here: http://www.adam-bien.com/roller/abien/entry/beans_with_both_views_local
It is almost the same solution as described in the google link before. It works. I have now one instance of my class being a remote and local service. My application decides which one to use: The remote service from a remote server or the local one - depending on the server load.
