I use symbolic links too; but your way is still too much work.  

JAVA_HOME=/opt/java
PATH=/opt/java/bin:$PATH

My JDK is installed in /opt, such as /opt/jdk_1.4.2 or /opt/jdk_1.5

ln -s /opt/jdk_1.5 /opt/java

Then all I have to do is change the one link /opt/java to point to
whichever jdk I want to use.
