As I understand it, that only applies to the hardware java acceleration that is built into the version of the ARM chip our devices use.
That's sad really, as it's supposed to be quite capable and would be much more battery-efficient than a software java.

Purely software based java would have none of these issues.

I have seen 3 different java projects on these devices, and am chomping at the bit for a fully functional one so I can run freemind!

This 1st one sorta works, but has no maemo integration, so was borderline useless for freemind.
The 2nd one just gives me errors about missing jars (I'm not a java programmer).
The 3rd one, I can't find a URL for as I couldn't get it do work at all and abandoned it.
