[maemo-developers] 770 Java HW Acceleration (and JVM support)

[From: Jason Mills]

Last I recall, access to the Java HW acceleration on-chip was a licensing
issue between the three players in the equation (ARM, TI, Nokia).


I would have thought ARM and TI would be a bit more motivated to make sure
Nokia could make use of it on the 770, but then that's the altruist in me
speaking. ;-)


As for general Java VM support, you're looking at adding even more players
(SunW, et al...), no?
