Sorry but Jazelle is not a JVM, its an instruction set which supports
_some_ of the bytecode-instructions. It does not feature a
Garbage-Collector, reflection, ... and all the other parts out of
which a JVM consists. It probably would be a lot of work to move a
J2SE JVM on top of that.
However I agree with your opinion, that beeing apple does not mean you
can go against all developers just to get something "unique".
I won't support the iPhone simply because its not worth the troubles -
I can support almost all phones/pdas with a single codebase, why
should I write a seperate port on another language just to have it
running on the iPhone.
