Apple El Reg reports: "Less than a day after Apple unveiled its much-discussed iPhone SDK, Sun Microsystems has told the world it will build a Java Virtual Machine for Steve Job's handheld status symbol. 'We're very excited,' Eric Klein, Sun's vice president of Java marketing, told the The Reg. 'We've spent the last 24 hours furiously looking through what information was made publicly available, and we feel comfortable enough at this point on the information we have to commit the engineering resources to bring the JVM over to the iPhone and the iTouch as fast as our schedules and Apple's release schedule will allow.'" Sun plans to distribute the JVM free of cost via the App store.

"I think you've been working for the wrong companies ;-)

The last three places I worked for gave me a phone and I'm only a lowly engineer and admin.

The again, just look at the popularity of the BlackBerry. I think the Apple wants a piece of that pie."


I must be, might be time for a new job where I don't have to pay out of pocket. I do see a lot of BlackBerry's around, and actually the CEO wanted me to get the BES up and running for his email.
