G'day,

I've been evaluating the N810 as a replacement PDA for a project at work. The stumbling block has been getting a JRE (Headful) to run our application, which uses AWT to render the GUI.

I've tried the various JREs provided by the excellent Jalimo project and also attempted to build PhoneME Advanced CDC Personal Profile but was ultimately unsuccessful.

What did work for me was Sun's Java SE 6u10 Embedded. An early access version is available for 90-day evaluation from

http://java.sun.com/javase/embedded/

I tried the ARM Linux Headful (EABI, glibc 2.5, Hard Float (VFP), Little Endian) version. It ran our app seamlessly (on OS2008 v5.2008.43-7).

Regards,
Chris.

I dont have any idea of java.. but you think this application will work with the current java scenario for the n810. It would be of great help for my studies if it does.

Managed to run a kiddie game with it and it works. 100% CPU though.

Java SE Embedded might satisfy Java the requirements specified in the URL you listed. It's difficult to say...

One thing I didn't find in Java SE Embedded was the Java Plug-In (JPI), i.e. no applet support (I didn't look too hard though).

Also bear in mind that Sun are providing 90-day evaluation versions of Java SE Embedded. After that you need to purchase a license. I think Sun's intention is to license this JRE to (platform) vendors.

Wouldn't it be great if Nokia were to license this JRE for their NITs, esp. given that Sun mention that royalties are as low as $US1 for high volume vendors. This is an early-access release (and appears no to include a JPI) but once the general access release is available it'd be great to see it on NITs by default...

I've just installed Java (based on link above) on my N800 and it works like a charm. Basically, I downloaded the tar.gz file from the Sun site, extracted it in my file space (using 'tar xzf ejre...tar.gz') and then ran the java command found within the ejre-..../bin directory. (where ejre-.... is the directory created by the tar extraction)

HTH,
eric

Just a warning, this is a very big file. I ran out of space and I have 42 MB free.
