I don't view Mahjongg as a priority for browsing the web, but my wife still enjoys it on her tablet.
Personally, I'd rather have a JRE (and not for applets)

Not surprising. I'm guessing that one way the came to this conclusion was to have a good sample size of users and then observed what internet properties they visited over a period of time, and then arrived at the conclusion that less than x% of the sites visited required Java, and many more required Flash, hence the decision to prioitize Flash over Java.

It's heavily influenced by ads, too. Many sites I visit have flash (for annoying ads), but I wouldn't care if it was gone. OTOH, Java is pretty much only represented by sites where that's the whole point. No Java ads weighting things to help out.

Java mobilephone games on n800? So far i only saw hello world exxample?
Or are games only prioritised for SonnyErikson phones? (beeing anoyed that 90+% of those that people show otf don't run on my Samsung D600)
There also apps like bluethooth remote controls, .....
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
The other thing is java demonstrations for physics laws and such (often as applets)

Any way to get java into the browser, so you could play java games on the web?

For me, let alone games. !
There are many banks that use java for their online banking applications, so having java on the NITs would be a great plus to many, in order to have full access to financial data and banking (and ultimately your money) thru the Internet Table.
My 2 cents.

It is a shame that there is actually hardware on the Tablets to run java (Jazelle) but it isn't active because Nokia chose not buy a licence for it. If you happen to use a Linux pc at home you could log into your pc securely by VNC over SSH and do your banking that way.
So far, Internet banking is the only thing I can't do with my N800 that I do on my PC
N800 running OS2008 with 2 x 16GB SDHC connected over WiFi or via BT to Nokia E51's HSDPA/3G network
