Google Phone uses Java technology on top of mobile OS

Here's a blog post on gigaom.com that talks about the Google Phone. It uses Java technology as the middleware layer on top of a highly optimized mobile OS.

See:

Google Phone using Java middleware

Here's a quote: 

 Google Mobile OS uses a highly 
 optimized Mobile Linux; 
 developers will be able to use 
 a Java Development Kit. Google 
 is said to have developed a 
 highly optimized Java running 
 on top of the OS.
Of course using Java ME CDC as that middleware layer is a natural choice. There's the required functionality of a full Java 2 VM platform already there. What about compatibility with MIDP? It's in there! What about an officially supported JCP spec? It's in there! What about a commercial JIT that can run fast on a constrained device? It's in there!

NICE....i've pretty much become soured on apple and its obsessive need to control everything....because of the fact i can't easily develop Java microapps on Mac OS X, I've pretty much switched back to using windows as my main developmentbox, with linux as the server.
