I am an internet poker junkie. Since the 770 does not have Java support, I can't get anything to work. Has anyone had success with adding Java or getting a poker client from one of the online sites to load? Thanks in advance, BT

I haven't had time to try it but look here:

The "blackdown" seems interesting: "requires arm running linux"

Most of the other versions have gone dead or cost money.

When you get to the archives, you'll have to look around for the last version with an arm account.

Let us all know.

Note, getting a JVM is relatively trivial (the bit which executes the Java code). Class libraries are harder (which contain code to display windows and graphics etc.), but met by things such as GNU Classpath.

However, getting Java within a web browser is another matter. Opera provides a hook for plugins, which the Flash plugin uses. However, unless it's documented and a plugin is written to bind Java and Opera together, it won't be easy to get Java applets displayed in the web browser.

Has anyone been able to get a client loaded from one of the online poker sites? I have seen a few that offers a linux client but it would need to be ported.
