This guy may hate Java ME, but I love him cause he’s got a Flash Killer in the works
Forget Microsoft’s Silverlight as the new Flash Killer. I stumbled upon Chris Oliver’s work with F3, a new declarative Java scripting language, and basically got floored when I saw his demos (you can view them via Web Start). Java has been rightly criticized as sometimes having heavy-looking, kludgy GUIs, but the next time someone disses on Java, just point him to F3 and watch his jaw drop all the way to the floor.
It’s too bad it took Sun more than 10 years to get it right. If they had moved out stuff like this earlier, we would never have been bothered by annoying Flash ad banners - we’d be bothered by annoying Java ad banners instead! 
Now, someone should port this over to CDC devices as soon as possible
