JavaOne Update - Solaris 5, iPods 0
The Solaris Challenge got off to a great start at JavaOne on Monday with the main session of the day where Johnnyl and Adam showed off the fact that we can now DTrace Java applications with Solaris 10.

Adam was just coming off the stage when he was approached by the first challenger of the day, a customer interested in using DTrace on Java midlets provided to him by third parties (more on that later in the week).

The action for the rest of the day happened at booth #800 on the Sun stand with DTrace commando Jarod (occasionally assisted by Brian, Adam and at one point, Scott McNealy) happily DTracing multiple applications and giving DTrace demos.

They said we were crazy, they said it couldn't be done but we've been through 5 applications today and haven't had to hand over any iPods yet, although one customer has pointed out that he felt he should get one as we only delivered a 30% improvement for him (with no major code changes).

We'll be posting live from the show floor tomorrow and will write up more of the gory details then.
