Apple gave Sun kind of the cold shoulder, not giving them the opportunity to put Java on the iPhone for Java apps. Now that the SDK is out, Sun’s decided to just take matters into their own hands and prep a Java Virtual Machine for the device that’ll allow Java applets to run on it. The JVM for iPhone will be based on Java Micro Edition, allowing apps like games and enterprise applications. You know, uh, all the stuff we’ve been clamoring for. I guess. Well, I’m sure at least a couple of interesting programs will come out of this, right? We’ll see how Apple handles Sun sneaking Java onto the iPhone this way. [Infoworld via Slashdot]
